Those who have ever had a sinus infection come in please

Sorry in advance for the lame NPR question. About 4 weeks ago I had a fever, bad cough, sneezing, etc. It went away and now I feel fine but I have sinus pressure on the right side of my face/nose. Some sneezing but really no other symptoms. I'm fever free and besides the sinus pain feel totally fine. To those of you who have had a sinus infection, does what I'm describing sound like one? Sorry again for the lame question. I'm going to call my doctor tomorrow.

    Yes, if your face hurts you probably have one.

    I'm going to dissent here. I've had a ton of sinus infections and although facial pain is part of it, I generally feel pretty crappy too. But id call the doctor anyways, just to see what's up with the pressure. GL!
    SQUIRREL!!!

    I get a lot of them, my sinuses don't drain properly. If your face hurts its probably a sinus infection :( I find that sinus rinse as hot as you can stand it early on can a) help with the pain and b) help move some mucus along.

    I had one and felt like shit.  So much snot.  Used three boxes of tissues in a day and renamed the right side of my bed snot mountain.  So much snot.  See the doc they can help speed up recovery.

    Currently on round 2 of antibiotics for a fucking sinus infection that won't quit.

    Besides the obvious sinus pain....theres the teeth pain/sensitivity, coughing, sore throat, gobs of yellow/green snot and all that jazz. Yeah...fun stuff.

    And apparently the z-pak didnt do the trick the first time...so now I'm on a 2 week course of augmentin. Fuck this shit.
