Ethmoidal silent sinus syndrome after nasal swab test.

This study reported the case of a healthy male in his 40s who presented with a 3-month history of frontal headache and post-nasal drip, which did not improve with oral antibiotics.

The patient claimed that the swab insertion into the nasal cavity was particularly painful on the left side.
