I use a saline nose spray daily when I shower. Since I have done this, I do not get post nasal problems and my sinus infections seem to only occur about once a year. There may be some better solutions, but this seems to be safe and effective. You may also want to try Oregano oil, which many have claimed to be useful for sinuses and clearing the airways. You can now buy Oregano sprays at some health food stores. Do not use regular essential oil, as it will contain petroleum and will be harmful to your brain.

Sinuses are up your nose to almost your forhead. I don't believe they are in your head. I think they are connected to your nose.
A nose ring should have no effect on your sinuses,the pain is equal to that of having your ears pierced.
no it is not
They have two main functions: 1) As in all sinuses, they give size without added weight and 2) They give depth to the voice. You have the para nasal sinuses, assembled around your nose. You have maxillary sinuses, frontal sinuses, ethmoid sinuses and sphenoid sinuses around your nose. These sinuses make the area around your nose, very light in weight. The diagonally opposite part of the skull is thick and heavy. That is occipital bone for example! This has an evolutionary advantage to human being. After deep inspiration, you can float in the water, without any efforts. So these para nasal sinuses has helped you to keep your nose out of water. The opposite thick part of the skull help you in this endeavour. You can very easily understand the importance of your nose in water verses your nose out of water. That is the reason, why the para nasal sinuses are assembled around your nose. All the other advantages are accessory, probably.
Open passages in your nose.
They clear your sinuses. They really make your nose run if you have a stuffy nose.
There are four pairs of sinuses in the human body: frontal sinuses (in the forehead), maxillary sinuses (cheekbones), ethmoid sinuses (between the eyes), and sphenoid sinuses (behind the nose).
The paranasal sinus is behind your nose and cheeks. http://www.cancerbackup.org.uk/Cancertype/Headneck/Typesofheadneckcancers/Paranasalsinuscancer The medical term for it is called the maxillae
no, no you can not unless you fell like breaking you nose.
sinuses
Nasal sinuses are air-filled cavities within the bones of the face and skull that are connected to the nasal cavity. They help to humidify and filter the air we breathe, as well as lighten the weight of the skull. The main sinuses include the frontal sinuses, ethmoid sinuses, sphenoid sinuses, and maxillary sinuses.
