Explanation:

• Facial pain worsening when bending forward: Sinus pressure increases with forward - bending, a common sinusitis symptom.
• Postnasal discharge: Mucus drainage from sinuses to throat is typical in sinusitis.
• Pain and tenderness over the lower forehead: Frontal sinuses (in lower forehead area) can be affected in sinusitis.

• Pain and tenderness in the neck: Not a direct sinusitis symptom (more related to neck - specific issues).
• White patches on a dark red throat: More indicative of strep throat or other throat infections, not sinusitis.

Answer:

facial pain that worsens when the patient bends forward, postnasal discharge, pain and tenderness over the lower forehead
