What could it mean if you had a throat infection but it went away before taking antibiotics but a few days after you got tingling in the forehead and nose and sometimes there is pressure in your head?
It sounds like your sinuses could be congested. When the sinuses become congested they can create pressure in the face and head. This pressure is what you are feeling. The sinuses can become congested due to poor mucus flow or a mucus blockage or mucus membrane inflammation. The tingling in your nose could be an allergy and this would cause the mucus membranes to swell. This leads to the congestion which then can lead to post nasal drip. Post nasal drip occurs when the body cannot drain the mucus properly and is forced to d rain it down the back of the throat, but when this mucus is infected it can also cause a sore throat. It would be in your best interest to treat your allergies, because it can cause a sinus infection and another sore throat. You can visit sinuswars for more information on the condition or you should visit an allergist.

Can sinusitis cause swollen throat glands?
For me sinus drainage will cause the back of my throat to appear swollen but it is due to thickened or even hardened mucus built up in the sinus drainage ducts. You can take your finger and carefully massage around the area (if you feel like sticking your finger back there) and hardened chunks of mucus will come out. I can't stand to leave these things in there, as soon as I notice them I have to get them out or they lead to a sore throat for me. It might sound disgusting but it works for me.
Could having sinus cause you to spit up blood?
It is possible that you could spit up blood if you have post nasal drip and your mucus membranes are damaged. Basically post nasal drip is the drainage of mucus down the back of the throat because your sinuses are congested. Thus the body is unable to control the production and flow of mucus. Many people cough up this mucus as it bothers their throat and can even lead to a sore throat. So when your mucus membranes are damaged they can bleed, normally this would lead to a nose bleed, but if the sinuses are congested the blodd can drain down the back of the throat (post nasally) with the mucus. I would definitely sugest that you treat your post nasal drip, sinus congestion and damaged mucus membranes. You can visit sinuswars.com for more information on the three conditions. Or alternatively you can visit sinus-pro.com
