Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain the symptoms of clogged nostrils along with pain in sinus seems to be due to infection of the right maxillary sinus leading to Sinusitis..
As the sinuses drains through nose fluid accumulation in the sinuses can lead to clogged feeling in the sinuses..

I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and PNS View or MRI of sinuses can be diagnostic and treatment can be planned accordingly..

As of now you can take decongestant nasa sparays containing Xylmetazoline, do saline nasal irrigations, do steam inhalations and use a humidifier in your room..
You can also take anti-inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen for relief from pain.

Hope this information helps.

Thanks and regards.
