What are the symptoms of sinusitis?

When the sinuses become inflamed or infected, the mucus thickens and clogs the openings to one or more sinuses. Fluid builds up inside the sinuses causing increased pressure. Also bacteria can become trapped, multiply and infect the lining. Common symptoms of sinusitis include nasal congestion, thick green nasal discharge, fever, headache, tiredness and facial pain.
