This mucus is drained out through the nose channels. Sinus headaches manifest when the sinus suffers from an inflammation. The inflammation may be caused by an allergic reaction, infection, or a tumor. The inflammation prevents the mucus outflow, which results in pain, known as sinus headaches. Sinus headaches have an association with a constant and deep pain occurring in the forehead, nose bridge, and cheekbones. Abrupt movement of the head and straining can aggravate the pain of sinus headaches. The pain is often accompanied by numerous sinus symptoms, such as discharge from the nose, fever, swelling of the face, and a feeling  [...]

Here are some of the causes of sweat – Humidity and Heat: When your temperature rises, it will cause your sweat glands to get into action as soon as they can. The fact that you have about 2.6 million sweat glands has to have something with why you sweat so much. The body sweats because it is your natural mechanism to stay cool.
