Hi, I have runny nose, headache due to pressure in sinuses around eyes. I feel weak like I will get fever. Does this sinus pressure mean infection?

Hi, your symptoms sound like you may have sinus infection. When the bacteria is spreading in the sinus cavities around the nose, it leads to an infection. Severe pressure behind and around the eyes, forehead, and upper cheeks is a symptom of sinus infection, as well as pain. However, it is important to bear in mind that some headaches occur at the beginning of a cold. Green nasal discharge for more than 10 days can be related to viral infection and is usually connected with a cold. Other symptoms include cough, fever and fatigue. Cough is almost always seen, because thick mucus needs to be expelled from the chest.
