Based on your symptoms, most likely you have received got an infected sinus, ( frontal sinus)
You will require a course of antibiotics, usually Augmentin along with antihistamines and analgesics. Do continue steam inhalation.. Since this is not an OTC medicine, I advise, you to consult a physician.
