Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns....

As per your complain it seems that you have infection and inflammation in the frontal sinuses and the symptoms seems consistent with it..
You should consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like MRI of sinuses can be diagnostic..
In case of sinusitis you will be advised steroid nasal sprays, saline nasal irrigations, anti-inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen, oral and nasal decongestants and steam inhalations..
You should also do warm compresses over the forehead and nose..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
