What Is a Sinus Headache?
A sinus headache is caused by inflammation, infection, or blockage of the sinuses, leading to pressure and pain in the forehead, cheeks, around the eyes, or nose.
Sinus headaches are very common in Dubai due to environmental factors such as:
- Dust exposure
- Sandstorms
- Allergies
- Air pollution
- Dry air
- Air conditioning exposure
Accurate diagnosis by an experienced ENT specialist in Dubai is essential, as many headaches are misdiagnosed and may not be true sinus headaches.

Sinus headache is usually caused by sinus inflammation or blockage.
Acute Sinusitis
A sudden sinus infection causes inflammation and pressure.
Chronic Sinusitis
The most common cause of sinus headache — persistent sinus inflammation lasting more than 12 weeks.
Blocked Sinus Drainage
Sinus drainage pathways may be blocked due to deviated septum, nasal polyps, or turbinate hypertrophy.
Nasal Polyps
Polyps block sinus openings, preventing normal drainage.
