Well come to HCM
This could be typical symptoms of sinusitis may have some secondary infection if I would be treating physician of this case then I would treat this case with the medicines give bellow
1) Tab Ciprofloxacine 500 mg twice in day for five days
2) Tab Loratidine with Pseudoephedrine three times in day
drink more water, have steam inhalation, have hot shower, everything would be fine soon, take care.
