[|Human|] I have a history of having allergies (i.e. I sneeze and get a runny nose if the weather outside changes). For the past 2 months I started to get headaches stretching from left temple to the right and in the middle of my forehead. I would take Tylenol, Excedrin, or Advil, but they really wouldnt go away.

Plus partial opacification of bilateral ethmoid sinuses due to the mucosal thickening. Bilateral mastoid air cells are normally aerated. Do I have sinisitus? Is this the cause of my headaches? What remedies are available to alleviate the mucosal thickening and get me back to normal? I also heard that this is not a very serious condition but I am still concerned. Thank you.
