eye pain

Question
I am a 18 year old student. just a few days ago, I start to experience a little pain on my right eye if I bend down or if I blink hard. can you please explain this? is this a serious problem?


Answer
Dear Andy,



Not serious, but sounds more like a sinusitis pain than originating from the eye.,



Take some steam inhalation and a tablet for cold (over the counter). If there is also visual disturbance, visit a physician.



Hope this helps,

Best,

Dr Shroff
