A true sinus infection is caused by bacteria. Technically, you cannot be diagnosed with a sinus infection unless you have had symptoms (pressure above eyes or next to nose, nasal cogestion, headache) for two weeks. If the symptoms are more brief, then it could be a viral infection (caused by a virus) that goes away on its own. If it lasts for two weeks or more, go see a doctor and get antibiotics which will treat the bacterial infection.
