Can we take any over the counter meds for sinus infection?
I think I am starting one. I have really bad pressure in the back on my head. I really don’t want to go to the doctor so I can sit there for two hours. I am going to wait and see if it gets bad.

If it's an infection you need antibiotics. If it's just a sinus headache and some congestion, you can take regular plain old sudafed.

The Dr., unfortunately... If you make an appointment, then you shouldn't have to wait 2 hours- I waited 2 hours at the walk in, and it turned out to be no infection, thank God. There's abad cold going around- mine started with sinus pain- take care of yourself!

I've been sick as a dog since saturday. I finally went to the doctor yesterday and they gave me a script for Nasacort...my OB ok'd it. Other than that i've been taking Tylenol Cold...which hasn't done crap.

Unfortunatly my drs office is always backed up. The wait is ridiculous every time but they are good drs.
