Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you to my virtual clinic HCM!
I have carefully worked through your case, and can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns today and will put my best efforts to get you out of this situation.


Probabilities:-
It seems that you have got acute sinusitis (paranasal sinus infection) leading to stuffy nose and tightness in head and you feel as if stuffed head.


Reason:-
Usually in the start it may be due to the viral infection but for this much time it seems to be secondarily infected by the bacteria.


Management:-
If I was your treating physician I would have prescribed you with:
Azithromycin.
Advil cold and sinus.
Fexofenadine.


You need to start gargles with Lukewarm water with salt in it. It will help get better soon.

Take proper rest for fast recovery.
Take plenty of water and fruits, vegetables and salads in diet.
Salmon fish will help necessary nutrition need to heal you up fast.

Take a warm mist vaporizer and put in vicks pads in it, and keep it ON in your bedroom for proper patency of the airways and to get better sleep. It will relieve the stuffiness and will get you feel better and symptom free throughout the day.

Have a wonderful time ahead. Hope I answered all of your questions. Let me know if you have any further clinical concerns or doubts. I will be more than happy to get back to you in no time.
