Brief Answer:
allergic rhino sinusitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for your query.
In my opinion, all your symptoms suggest allergic rhino sinusitis. crackling sound in the ear can bd because of fluid in the middle ear due sinusitis.
Painful lump in the face, itching, heaviness in the head can be because of sinus congestion.
If I were your treating doctor, I would have prescribed antihistamines + mucolytics combination drugs twice daily for 2 weeks, + steroid nasal spray twice daily for 2 weeks. Steam inhalation daily 3 to 5 times will help you to reduce the head heaviness. If symptoms persists or aggravate, consult with the doctor and get evaluated. Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
