Hi I am Dr Mittal I have read your message. I think I can help you. The symptoms of the query are highly suggestive of a sinusitis. You will need to test with an x ray PNS waters view. You can get the test and tell us the report. Further management and treatment would depend on the report. Meanwhile continue warm saline gargles 4 times a day, steam inhalation 4 times a day. You may initiate nasoclear nasal spray in the meantime- take a spray 4 times a day. Let us know the reports. Please click on THANKS. Dr Mittal
