General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As the intensity of headache is much and not relieved by conventional off the counter medications, I would suggest a visit to ER for:
- Injection form of analgesic as diclofenac or tramadol hydrochloride
- Anti emetic medication as ondancetron or domperidone with PPI as omeprazole or rabeprazole. Till that time, inhalation of vapors of boiled water added Karvol capsules will help to relieve sinus congestion.

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

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
