The inflammation leads to swelling and enhanced mucus production and blocking of channels. It is diagnosed as having pain in the cheeks, jaws, forehead and nose bridge. Often, this pain is accompanied by a fever and pus. These headaches can be treated with antibiotics and antihistamines.

The medication responsible for rebound headaches are ibuprofen, aspirin and acetaminophen, apart from common prescription drugs.
