Does anyone know why sinus infections trigger migraines? Unfortunately I have chronic sinus infections, and the migraines from them are horrible.

Sinus infections for me mean migraines that no prescription medication can touch. I have to go on an antibiotic and wait days for the antibiotic to start to get a foot hold and then it starts to slowly ease up.

Both Sinus and Migraine will cause the headache commonly. Sinus and Migraine symptoms are very common. Sinus headaches are caused by pressure in forehead, nasal congestion, Runny nose, Tears eyes, and loss of smell. Migraine headache causes are nausea, lack of sleep, skipping meals, getting hungry, stress, anxiety etc. Sometimes sinus may trigger migraines. To get recover from sinus and migraine you can use Cold Therapy gel Mask. The mask contains soft gel inside which you can place on your face for particular time.
