You could have ongoing sinusitis of some type.

Non-allergic rhinitis/allergic rhinitis.

Migraine type induced congestion.

Many people diagnose themselves with “sinus headache”

It might not even be a sinus headache but a transient reaction to blood pressure changes etc…

Have you considered a TMJ Disorder to account for what you consider to be migraines or sinus headaches? If you have a stressful life, you may be unknowingly grinding your teeth during sleep or during the day. I speak from experience. This situation can be resolved. See your dentist.

Good luck!

My previous ENT diagnosed the sinus headache but standard treatments haven’t worked. I’m changing ENTs, seeing a new neurologist since migraines may be the/an issue… and a new dentist to look at the possibility of TMJ - which I hadn’t considered until I got these responses. Appreciate it!
