General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,

This is surely indicative of a bacterial infection. I would advise you to consult your doctor immediately for preliminary examination, investigations and get started on proper antibiotic, anti-inflammatory medicines with decongestants both nasal drops and oral. This should give you relief.

Second opinion of an ENT Surgeon for nasal endoscopy, further investigations, CT scan of nose and sinuses will help to get more specific diagnosis and have proper additional management as needed. Complete the course till cured as ENT Infections take more time to heal. Avoid cold and damp atmosphere. Stay in warm rooms. Steam inhalation and plenty of warm fluids help further.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
