Hello,
You have symptoms of chronic sinusitis which left untreated. Need not to worry. I would suggest you take steam inhalation on a daily basis and take green tea every morning. You should consult ENT specialist without any delay to prevent further complication like lung infection. The doctor may order a CT scan, chest x-ray, and blood test. The doctor may prescribe antibiotics at least for ten days (amoxicillin or penicillin), decongestant and anti-inflammatory medication. For now take steam twice a day to relieve congestion, apply hot compresses on the chest and do drink glass of warm water with one spoon of honey in it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
