We offer walk-in sinus infection treatment to help reduce side effects and clear infections as quickly as possible. 

What Are the Symptoms of a Sinus Infection?  

​

The signs of a sinus infection can vary from person to person. Some of the most common symptoms include:

• Facial pressure and pain, especially around the sinuses, in the ears, and around the top row of teeth

• Nasal congestion or a runny nose

• Headache

• Sore throat

• Cough

• Mucus running down the back of the throat (post-nasal drip)  

• Fever

​

Most sinus infections are caused by the same viruses that are responsible for the common cold. However, some sinus infections result from bacteria and require treatment with antibiotics. Tell-tale symptoms of a bacterial sinus infection include: 

​

• Thick nasal discharge

• Facial pressure and pain

• Symptoms that persist for more than a week and do not respond to self-care measures and over-the-counter treatments
