Sinus, Vertigo, Watery Noise Heard In Head Only When Upright, Causes Imbalance In Walking

i have a sinus problem with pressure head, cheeks, eyes and stuffy ears. Also I have a strange noise in my head which sounds like saliva squeezed against your teeth , watery like sound. It affects my eyes, with vertigo and causes my walk carefully as it interferes with my walking at times, sending my slightly off a straight line. I do not have pain or it does not affect my sleep . Only when I am upright and walking, I hear the squeezing watery sound moving in my head with some vertigo. I need your help to ease my concerns

Hi
More information is needed like your age, you have high BP or diabetes, you are on any long term medication, how long are your symptoms, you have any nose symptoms, any deafness or noises in ear etc to explain the reason for all of your symptoms.
With the information provided by you, I can say that you may be having chronic sinus infection. This has affected your eustachian tube (tube connecting back of your nose to middle ear) leading to stuffy feeling in ears, imbalance. The same thing can explain if you are getting any noise in ears but not if it is in your head. Your examination is likely to elucidate more about your problems.
So please consult an ENT specialist.
He/she may advice C T scan of sinuses.
If sinus infection is confirmed, he may advice antibiotic, nasal decongestants etc.
After that if your imbalance and strange noises in head persist, you may have to consult a neurologist to rule out any cause for your those symptoms.
Wish you good health.
