Hello,
The symptoms can be related to sinusitis. I suggest to do a sinus X-ray for further evaluation. Meanwhile, I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms. If the diagnosis is confirmed, I suggest to use a cycle of antibiotics such as Augmentin twice a day for a week.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
