Posted by sharlynn62 @sharlynn62, Nov 30, 2018. I have had chronic sinusitis for several years, accompanied by daily headaches and my ENT, as well as a MRI of my brain have confirmed that my sphenoid sinus (the sinus in the back of your face that is inside your brain) is completed blocked, and their is a build up of mucous like cells ...
I was referred to Mayo ENT and had sphenoid surgery to clear the blocked sinuses and serious infections. I tried sinus rinses for several months, to no avail. Then, the doctor added a special antibiotic medication to use with the rinse. The infection I had was antibiotic-resistant, but this did nothing to help either.
Blockage in Sphenoid Sinus Causes Daily Headaches. I have had chronic sinusitis for several years, accompanied by daily headaches and my ENT, as well as a MRI of my brain have confirmed that my sphenoid sinus (the sinus in the back of your face that is inside your brain) is completed blocked, and their is a build up of mucous like cells ...
Do know that most CT scans on anyone will show mild mucosal thickening. Especially in the maxillary sinuses. That is what the mucosa in the nose is meant to do. On a daily basis. This is a normal response to temperatures, allergens, foods. A CT scan of the sinuses is just a snap shot in time, of what is occurring on that day at that given time.
And sphenoid sinus infections only happen 1-3% of the time ppl have sinus infections. Usually, sinus infections are in the front of the face. That's why nobody was figuring this out I guess. Plus, sphenoid sinus disease doesn't usually put pressure on the cerebellum & brain stem like mine did, so everyone thought this was a benign finding on my ...
The ENT told Joe that he could feel the lump on the outside wall of the maxillary sinus and said that it is either a cyst or a tumor. The ENT gave Joe medication to clear up the congestion and mucus, and then he is to have a CT scan in 2 weeks. We are all devastated at the possibility of this being a tumor.
Found a large ascending aortic aneurysm which my cardiologist keeps close track of! Another MRI looking at the brain found sphenoid sinus disease, which eventually spread near the brain, and I was operated on last year for that- I’m sure I would have been in trouble eventually as there are no symptoms until it’s advanced.
Sometimes a side effect of some medications can be brain fog. I'm not sure if Mayo Clinic is an option for you, but they are very good at diagnosing rare and difficult to diagnose health problems. If you would like to seek help from Mayo Clinic, you can one of our appointment offices. The contact information for Minnesota, Arizona and Florida.
The tension in my lower neck, ear area and teeth dissipated quickly. The facial pain and sensitivity rolled back, notably in the sinus area and I noticed a clear improvement in the right eye and overall pain diminished by 90 % over the following hours. I had thought that the trigger was a sonic toothbrush I had bought and started using a few ...
A cerebrospinal fluid leak occurs when fluid escapes through a small tear or hole in the outermost layer of tissue that surrounds the brain or the spinal cord. Leaks can occur in the skull or at any point along the spinal column. Because headache is a common symptom, patients are often misdiagnosed or mistreated for migraines.
