HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The pain on the right side of the face and blocked sensation of the nostrils may indicate that your sinuses are congested.
You need to consider an oral decongestant along with the topical one.
At this stage with persistent symptoms, you may need to consider a short course of steroids to help with your inflammation.
I hope this helps
