Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sinus headache along with pressure behind eyes . Well the symptoms you mention in query pointing towards severe sinus infection . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper diagnosiswithout any delay to prevent the further complication . Doctor may order CT scan x-ray and nasal endoscopy . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics ( amoxicillin or penicillin ) at least for 10 days along with decongestant and expectorant . For now take steam thrice a day to relieve the congestion and apply warm compresses on face and take anti allergic like bendryl .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
