Aaseth K et al. - Compared with the general population, persons with chronic rhinosinusitis have an at least ninefold increased risk of having chronic headache. A 3-year follow-up showed that HACRS symptoms were significantly improved after treatment with nasal surgery, nasal corticosteroids, discontinuation of overused headache medications and discontinuation of nasal decongestants or unspecified reasons. Chronic rhinosinusitis is significantly associated with chronic headache, and HACRS is likely to be a distinct type of headache.
