Hello,

Most commonly it is a transitory flu which should improve. In order to reduce the symptoms, you should take a topical decongestant like oxymetazoline spray, steroid spray and Ibuprofen for the pain.

If symptoms persist for over a week should consult an ENT specialist for a possibility of sinusitis complication.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
