Symptoms of Paranasal Sinus Cancer: The spaces within the bones, behind the nose and cheeks, are called the paranasal sinuses. Each space, or sinus, is lined with cells that produce mucus to prevent the lining of the nose from drying out, and moisten the air that we breathe. People who use snuff for many years, or those who work in the wood or furniture industry and are exposed to wood dust, are more likely to develop paranasal sinus cancer. The symptoms can vary depending on which sinuses are affected. The most common symptoms of Paranasal sinus cancer include: blocked sinuses which do not clear, pain behind the nose or in the upper teeth, and swelling around the eyes. Other symptoms may include: numbness of the cheek, upper lip, upper teeth or side of the nose; persistent nosebleeds; headaches; speech changes; double vision. These symptoms may occur due to conditions other than cancer, and most people with these symptoms will not have paranasal sinus cancer.
