Hello,

Pressure between the eyes indicates that you have an infection and inflammation of the frontal sinuses. Since you an inflammation of the sinuses, it is very possible that you do have an inflammation of the eustachian tube - a small tube that connects the ears with the throat. Presssure inside the ears usually occur when this tube gets blocked due to any reason - usually an inflammation of the throat.

It is likely that the tissues of the upper respiratory tract got infected from the dental abscess.

please take the following steps at home and see if it helps:

- Gargle with hot, saline water - mix 2 teaspoonfuls of salt in 1 glass of hot water and gargle thrice daily.

- Steam inhalation - Take a bowl of hot water, and put 2 tsf of salt in it. You can also put menthol in it if you have some. Inhale the steam that rises from the water. You can put a towel over the head as you inhale for quicker relief.

- Drink a glass of warm lemon juice daily. Squeeze a wedge of lemon in a glass of warm water and mix 1 pinch of salt and 1 tablespoonful of sugar for taste. You can increase the amount of water if you find the lemon too sour to taste

- You can suck on hard sweets - the saliva trickling down the throat will be soothing. .

- Take Motrin tablets (500mg twice daily for 5 days).

- Improve your immunity by taking a multivitamin multimineral supplement. A tablet of Vitamin C 500mg will help to build up your resistance to infections. Vitamin C is known to be a potent agent against respiratory infections.

- Drink at least 8 - 10 glasses of water daily. Dehydration leaves you more prone to get infections.

- If you do not get better in 7 days, please see a doctor.

I hope this helps.

Antiiotics kill off the bacteria causing the infection. But the damage they cause to the tissues tend to remain for some time - the tissues can continue to remain inflamed even if there is no active bacteria.

The inflammation can decrease spontaneously after some time. Or they can weaken the tissues and make them prone to get infected again.

The steps outlined above should help to decrease the inflammation quite ffast.

Hello,

Inflammation of the frontal sinuses may not cause pain on pressure. Only an Xray or MRI scan of the skull will be diagnostic.

A rise in BP though can cause warmth and pressure on the ears. But is unlikely to cause pressure in the frontal sinuses.

It is unlikely that a throat and sinus inflammation will cause a rise in BP.

What is important is that fluctuations of BP is not a healthy sign. You need to consult your doctor for a thorough evaluation - a cardiac scan, ECG, ECG with holter monitor for 24 hours, blood tests like AST, creatinine kinase, a complete lipid panel etc.

An evaluation by an ENT specialist should also be helpful in the diagnosis of frontal sinusitis.
