Cardiologist 's  Response
go for a x ray cervicle spine lateral and ap view
our spine consists of intial spines around neck medically termed as cervicle spine, in between the cervicle spine nerve passes
any compression on this nerve or protrusion of this nerve can lead to pain numbness around nevk area associated with vertigo dizziness and other symptoms
Though a cervicle spine screening MRI is best to rule out a nerve herniation or compression yet a xray should be done 1st ly as it is basic investigation
now as you were treated by sprays for sinusitis your residual pain and heaviness can be either because of
sinusitis
or cervicle spine

to rule out sinusitis a x ray or ct scan of head will be ok!!!
if the pain is in neck area donot use a pillow while sleeping and try to sleep on a hard surface
