Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . You mentioned that you have vertigo, nausea and dull sinus headache . The symptoms you mention in query can occur due to condition like sinusitis , it can also occur due to ear infection and eustachian tube dysfunction. You should take this serious because if sinusitis left untreated infection can spread to surrounding part like middle ear or brain (meningitis). So i would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may order X-ray or CT scan for proper diagnosis . He/she may prescribe nasal decongestant , antibiotic course or mucolytic agent (ambroxol). If the cause of sinusitis is allergy the doctor may prescribe antihistamine drug.For now do warm saline gargles , take saline nasal drops , take steam 2-3 times a day and drink plenty of water to keep your self hydrate .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
