ENT Specialist,  's  Response
You seem to be suffering from sinusitis and the pain is because of inflammation of mucosal lining of the sinuses. Take oral and nasal decongestants along with mucolytics and analgesics. Do take hot water steam. In case the symptoms do not get relieved or increase, consult an ENT. Regards
