Hello!
My name is Dr. Aida and I am glad to attend you on Healthcaremagic!
Your symptoms could be related to a sinus infection. An inflammatory disorder can not be excluded either.
Do you have running nose?
I would like to review your brain MRI for a more professional opinion. I would also advise performing inflammation tests (complete blood count, sedimentation rate, PCR).
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards!
