UNDERSTAND PAIN
Understand Your Cold & Sinus Symptoms
To say that cold and sinus symptoms – like sinus pressure, nasal congestion and headaches — can cause discomfort would be an understatement. We can help you learn more about managing these symptoms because you don’t have time to be anything less than 100% you.
THE BASICS OF COLD AND SINUS SYMPTOMS
The sinuses are air-filled spaces in the skull behind the forehead, nasal bones, cheeks and eyes. These spaces are lined with mucus membranes. Colds can sometimes block normal circulation through the sinuses, leading to nasal congestion, sinus pressure and headaches. Sometimes people with the flu also experience muscle and body aches, fever, and fatigue.

WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT
Fight cold and sinus symptoms with a combination of medicine and home remedies:
Drink lots of fluids
This can help thin the mucus blocked in your sinuses.
Expose yourself to moisture
Breathing dry air can irritate the sinuses. Inhale steam from a humidifier or apply a warm, moist washcloth to your forehead to help.
Decongestants and pain relievers
Use over-the-counter medications that can help relieve pain and pressure from cold and sinus issues, like Aleve-D Sinus & Cold.
