Sinus infections require medical diagnosis and treatment, making it vital that you identify the symptoms early so that you can seek medical care.

Diagnosing Sinus Infection Symptoms at AFC Urgent Care Farmington

Sinus infections typically occur immediately after another illness. This is because the congestion caused by many common illnesses can cause mucus to be trapped deep in your sinus passages. This build-up of trapped mucus is a breeding ground for bacteria, which can lead to a sinus infection. If you’re experiencing illness symptoms that appear to get worse after a few days, you may be developing a sinus infection.

Common symptoms of a sinus infection that we can treat include:

• Congestion
• Sneezing
• Coughing
• Headaches
• Facial pain and pressure
• Fatigue
• Fever
• Sore throat

If you’re experiencing sinus infection symptoms, seeking medical care early can help prevent your symptoms from worsening. At AFC Urgent Care Farmington, our medical providers specialize in identifying common illnesses and providing customized treatment to manage symptoms and clear the infection. Your healthcare provider will review your medical history, including any past sinus infection diagnosis, and examine your ears, nose and throat for signs of inflammation and irritation. They may perform diagnostic testing to confirm their diagnosis at our on-site laboratory.

Based on the results of the examination and any diagnostic testing that was performed, your healthcare provider will provide you with treatment options.
