Sinus infections often follow a cold and cause pain and pressure in your head and face. Sinusitis can be either acute (sudden) or chronic (long-term). With chronic sinusitis, the infection or inflammation does not completely go away for 12 weeks or more.
How Long Do Symptoms Last? Most people with acute viral sinusitis get better on their own within 7 to 10 days. Many cases of acute bacterial sinus infections also get better on their own or with the help of antibiotics. If your symptoms are not getting better, or if they come back, you should be seen again by your healthcare provider.
