Suggest Treatment For Nasal Congestion And Irritation
My nose has been bothering me for over 10 years, and I m constantly blowing it very very hard to relieve the congestion and irritating fluids/dried fluids from inside my nasal cavity and nose. Today I blew it harder than ever before, approximately 50 times or more in a row, because whatever is in there is not coming out, and now I m experiencing severe symptoms of pain and numbness in different areas, which is growing more intense by the minute. To the immediate left of my nose, there appears to be a large bulgy vein sticking out of my face, pulsating along with my heartbeat, and this area is extremely sensitive. The teeth, gums, and lips directly under this vein are extremely numb, however my bottom molar teeth directly under the vein are in excrutiating pain. The inside of my head, the inside of my ear, and directly behind my left eye above the vein also ache constantly and the pain is a 8/10, nearly completely unbarable. PLEASE HELP ME!!

Hello,
You have history of nasal congestion and after blowing your nose hard you are having discomfort like a bulgy vein on your face associated with numbness in the teeth, gums, lips and excruciating pain in the molars. If you neglect, it may complicate and symptoms may worsen. Get clinically examined by an ENT or in the ER, so that the bulging vein can be examined and treated.
You can take Combiflam or Naproxen, one SOS when needed orally to ease inflammation and pain. You can apply ointment Soframycin on the affected area of the face for relief. This is not the time to stay at home, get examined in ER, get it treated. You need urgent medical aid.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
