Hi,

It seems you have acute paranasal sinusitis. Yellowish discharge suggest bacterial infection. Antimicrobial drugs and nasal decongestants would help. Anterior rhinoscopy and culture/sensitivity of yellowish fluid also can be undertaken to guide the management.

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

Regards,
