    Hello,
    Welcome to medimetry.
    It seems that both of you are suffering from sinusitis induced headache.
    I would suggest you to get CBC ESR and X-ray para nasal sinus done and revert. Till then Apply an ice pack to the painful area of your head. Try placing it on your forehead, temples, or the back of your neck.Take a warm bath or shower; take a nap; or take a walk.Ask someone to rub your neck and back, or treat yourself to a .Apply gentle, steady rotating pressure to the painful area of your head with your index finger and/or thumb. Maintainpressure for seven to 15 seconds, then release. Repeat as needed.Rest, sit, or lie quietly in a low-lit room. Close your eyes and try to release the tension in your back, neck, and shoulders.
    Hope this helps,
    Take care,
    Regards.
