Hello,
It could be due to sinusitis.
As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
A short course of antibiotics will be helpful.
Do steam inhalation to open up blocked sinuses.
If symptoms persist better to consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
