Hello,

Your symptoms are suggestive of a sinus infection. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam, a sinus X-ray study and sinus discharge bacterial culture. Antibiotics may be needed. In the meantime, I recommend taking ibuprofen and a nasal decongestant spray.

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

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
