Hi,
How are you? It is indeed possible that the trigger is associated with that building. If the symptoms recur, it is best that you have this checked by An ENT doctor for proper management. At this point. drink plenty of fluids and take decongestants and pain medication for it. Take care and do keep us posted.
I have the same problems. I am finding out that with flourecent lighting it gets worse and aggrivates my sinuses. I play roller derby and when I skate my sinus run. There's this one building on my travel team that when I skate it is worse. One day my right side was burning so bad it looked like someone hit me in my eye. Yesterday after practice, I got a sniffle then my left nostril had a slight pain, then I noticed I couldn't focus. Before I knew it I was laying in my car with lightening strikes. Lasted 10 minuites then a headache all the way home.....Luckily I only go on Sundays. (the building was built in the 50's and has that stale smell).
It also happens when I don't eat right too...
Your septum might have got straight, but a small area may be in 'contact' with the side-wall of the nose, irritating a nerve or its branch lying beneath.
An attempt can be made to give a space between the opposing surfaces. May be this is what your ENT is planning.

The 'faceache' is consentrated in the nose. It feels as if there are little squirmy things in my nose and then it proceeds to a migraine. The doctor said it is a type of headache that is related to a deviated septum, but my septum has been corrected by surgery. He mentioned a type of surgery for a nerve that runs from my nose to the side of my head.
Hi
Hope you are doing fine. Although difficult to say exactly without an examination, your migraine might be related to some ENT problem. The usual triggers for migraine are lack of food or sleep, exposure to light or hormonal irregularities (only in women), anxiety or stress.
However, in a few number of patients migraine may be associated with rhinology symptoms along with facial pain and/or head pain or pressure. Some patients with facial pain may have migraine confined to the maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve. The maxillary nerve carries sensory information from the lower eyelid and cheek, the nares and upper lip, the upper teeth and gums, the nasal mucosa and sinuses.
You should consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and management of your symptoms.
Take care
The site of pain on face or head depends on which particular site in nose / sinus is 'stimulated'.
Best,

Describe in detail what is the faceache pain.
