How Do Allergies Differ from Sinus Disease?

Allergies are often confused with sinus problems, in part, because, like sinus disease they cause nasal blockage and congestion of the nasal passages due to the swelling of the nasal lining. They also often lead to sinus infections because the symptoms may obstruct the little sinus openings in the same manner as sinus disease. (see sinusitis) 

Although the sensation of nasal stuffiness may be similar the primary symptoms and difference in allergic rhinitis, at least at the first stages of allergies, is the thin clear watery post nasal drip, sneezing, “allergic shiners” around the eyes, itching and congestion of the nasal membrane, versus facial pressure, low-grade fever, and thick colored nasal discharge and mucus that is present with sinus disease infection.
