What are these Symptoms of ??HELP!!

         About a month ago I went to the doctor for bumps in my groin but the doctor say it was when youre body is fighting a cold. Then about three weeks ago I had strep throat, I got antibiotics from the doctor and everything was fine for a few days. Then I started getting headaches for about two weeks straight everyday no fail. It doesnt feel like the ordinary headache though. But Im going to get my eyes checked and going to the doctor in 2 more days. Does this make sense why I would be getting these headaches everyday? If anyone knows anything please help Im really worried.
         I have also been taking ibuprofen but that hasn't been helping. I also have had alergies in the past but never really bad.

Hello,
It looks like you are having sinusitis which is causing all your symptoms. Sinus headaches are caused by sinus congestion and inflammation (called sinusitis). The sinuses are air-filled spaces lined with mucous membranes surrounding the forehead, cheeks and eyes. Healthy sinuses allow mucus to drain and air to circulate throughout the nasal passages. When sinuses become inflamed, these areas get blocked and mucus cannot drain. This lack of proper sinus drainage can lead to infection. Worse pain in the morning because mucus has been collecting and draining all night

Diagnosis can be made by examination, transillumination, xrays, a CT scan, or an MRI.Pls consult an ENT surgeon for that.
I hope that helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
