10 Sinusitis Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #8: Sore Throat
This is another symptom that can emerge as a result of the post-nasal drip that many folks experience with sinus infections. This is because of the mucus being forced down the back of the throat instead of passing normally through the sinuses, as it would if you weren’t sick.
The throat isn’t generally used to this kind of treatment, so it will become irritated as the post-nasal drip becomes more intense. It often starts off as an irritating tickle, but it can become inflamed and painful if the infection gets serious enough.
