Are sinus problems a side effect of anesthesia?

Asked By:stabyc

I just had an Endoscopy and when I woke up from the procedure, I had a horrible sinus headache with pressure and my eyes were streaming and I had to blow my nose for hours. Now the next day I still have the horrible sinus headache. I have had this procedure done before with no problems. Do I need to go have this checked by a doctor? Is this a normal side effect of anesthesia?
