I have thought that I have been suffering from sinusitis for about three years. Every now and then I have had slight pain in my left temple, cheek or ear region. There is swelling of the mucous membrane in my left maxillary sinus, and also some in my ethmoid sinus. I can hardly get any mucus from my sinuses. Early in December 2012 I got a new sympton, retro-orbital discomfort. An ENT doctor said that the retro-orbital pain may result from a virus infection, and the previously occurred left side temporal pain may result from my cervical dystonia. Then, at the end of Decemer I got a mild flu with slihtly running nose and some couching. Until now I still have discomfort behind my eyes at least in the evenings. Is this possibly a sign of ethmoid or sphenoid sinusitis? Can sinusitis cause swelling of ocular muscles or some other tssues behind eyes, and that is why I feel discomfort.? Eye movements are a little difficult, and objects close to my eyes when looking to a far distance cause discomfort. I also have some photofobia. Should I be worried about the eye symptoms?
I have tight cervical muscles in the right side of my neck, and my head is slightly leaned to the right. Could this cause my left side facial and temporal pain?
Could hyperparathyroidism cause eye symptoms? I have hypothyroidism, for which I am taking Thyroid Erfa.
