What is catarhh?

Catarrh is inflammation of a mucus membrane particularly of the head and throat.


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.


I have a lot of pressure in my head and my ears and throat are killing me what could be the cause?

Well all the symptoms that you have described seem to point typical sinus problems and even a sinus infection.Pressure in the head can be due to congested sinuses. When your sinuses become congested they build up pressure in the head and this in turn also results in your body draining mucus down the back of the throat (this condition is known as post nasal drip). When your mucus is infected and it is drained down the back of the throat it ussually leads to a sore throat/ throat infection. The pain in the ears is also as a result of the congestion, because your ears are connected to your sinuses throuth the eustachian tube. When the sinuses become congested we ofte nfind that our ears feel blocked. When there is a sinus infection we may even get earaches.

What would cause my 12 year old daughter to have in the last year a sore throat feeling hot red cheeks headaches stomachaches and faint weak muscles almost every day?

It seems like your daughter may actually have a sinus infection and post nasal drip. Post nasal drip is a condition that occurs when the body cannot drain the mucus normally and is forced to drain mucus down the back of the throat. When the mucus is infected and is drained down the back of the throat it can cause a sore throat and even nausea. It may even be the cause of your daughters sore stomach. The headaches are probably caused by sinus congestion. This happens because the blocked sinuses can create pressure in the head and this pressure can result in headaches and facial pain. A sinus infection (sinusitis) can cause fevers and weaken the body's immune system leaving a person feeling tired and lethargic. You can visit sinuswars.com as they provide good remedies for sinus problems and it is also a very informative site. *Post Answer* High Temperature (the degree of hotness or coldness of a body) is one of the symptom : Infection (medicine) the invasion of the body by pathogenic microorganisms and their multiplication which can lead to tissue damage and disease...."feeling sick and weak muscles"It also may be related to dental problems, which in turn can cause sinus like infections
