Side of face and eye hurt/feel funny

[momof3boys]

This has been going on for months...the side of my face where the cheekbone is closest to your temple has hurt on and off and my eye feels funny almost like its drooping but its not. It almost feels swollen right under my eye or something,my eye waters too...anyone know if this could be a muscle or nerve? Or sinus thing maybe? Just trying to not get worked up over it, as it is aggravating more than anything...

Could well be a sinus problem or blocked tear duct. Try not to over-worry, it's probably something very simple and explainable. have you seen your Doctor?

[momof3boys]

haven't been to the dr, don't wanna run there for something unless i need to...can sinuses go all the way to the side of your face almost where temple is and down?

It seems they are quite extensive and can be painful. You don't have a wisdom tooth coming through, by any chance? Referred pain?
