What Causes Head Pressure, Nose Tingling Sensation And Pressure With Dysgeusia?

For the past 6 weeks I have had pressure in my head that comes and goes in waves and a pressure and tingling sensation behind my nose and a somewhat metallic taste with whatever is draining into my throat. My doctors started me on Flonase, Zyrtec, advil cold and sinus, I also have been using the Netipot twice a day, I don t have nasal congestion or any Nasal drainage other than a post nasal drip every once in a while. I don t have itchy or watery eyes or sneezing. I have mentioned to my doc that one pupil is sometimes slightly larger than the other pupil but they react to light appropriately. The pressure goes away and comes back not sure what to do. Is this sinus related

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello. Welcome to hcm.
Yes, your condition is related to sinus
You must be suffering from chronic sinusisits. It can be diagnosed only after a CT scan of brain or better by a ENT specialist who can do a nasal endoscopy to look from where the pus is draining causing you to have post nasal drip
Unless the disease is cleared, you might not improve only with general medications. Hope this helps
All the best
