Hi.
Read and understood the problems you have, namely cold, sorethroat which has got increased on on using Vicks sinex.
Since the nose is still blocked, you need to take oral decongestant tablet along with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicines.
Use otrivin nasal drops and you may be fine.
The burning on vicks sinex can be due to severe infection the mucosa being very much inflamed.
Take bed rest, Doctor's opinion, prescription and you shall be fine.
