Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As per your history, it may be due to sinusitis/sinus infection may be caused due to nasal congestion.

Still, Kindly follow up with few more details:-

Do you have history of fever, sore throat, ulcer/any dental issue, weight gain?

Do have allergy to any food or medications?

Meanwhile, continue steam inhalation and betadine gargles. You can use nasal saline drops locally. Avoid smoking if you have it. In case of fever, you may require antibiotics after ENT specialist consultation.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further...
