According to the symptoms you reported (sinus pain and dizzy spells), it seems likely that you might be experiencing sinusitis. Sinusitis is an inflammation of the sinuses caused by bacterias or a virus. The openings and canals between the sinuses and the nasal cavity might be closed due to swelling of the local mucosa. Once the canals or the openings are closed or at least reduced, pain appears.


The location of the pain depends on which sinuses are affected. If the inflammation affects the frontal sinuses, the pain is located on the forehead above the eyebrows. Inflammation of the maxilar (upper jaw) sinuses might be accompanied with pain below the eyes. Depending on the cause, antibiotics might be given by your family doctor or an Ear, Nose and Throat specialist to kill the bacteria.


Before that RTG of the sinuses might be recommended to detect the inflammation. The dizziness might also be related to a disorder of the inner ear which might be examined by the specialist.


If no sinusitis is detected, then the sinus pain and the dizzy spells might be related to a migraine. Since there are many possible causes for a migraine, you might want to visit a neurologist. He might also check the condition of the balance center located in the cerebellum to detect the cause for the dizziness.
