General & Family Physician, Dr. Ajith J S's Response
She might have had allergic sinusitis due to inhaling dust and soot. It's nothing serious. Inhale steam/steam sauna thrice daily for three days and instill Saline nasal drops every four hours, 2 drops in each nostril. If the pain is severe, take paracetamol 500mg after food. And for the allergy any antihistamine tab before sleep for a week. Tell her to cover her nose and mouth when going out. Thank you.
