Yes. Sinus problems can cause severe headaches, ranging from a dull ache to a shart shooting pain. But this can also be caused from a number of other causes, such as tension, migraine, neck strain, and even more serious conditions.

If OTC sinus and pain meds don't give you relief, you need to see your doctor to rule out a more serious cause. But something else you can try that has helped my sinus headaches is standing in a hot shower with the water beating down on your face. It's something about the heat/steam, along with the pressure of the water that always helps my headaches, sinus or other types.
