You might be suffering from acute rhinosinusitis which is a common type of nose infection. You may need to take antibiotics, anti cold medicines and decongestant nasal drops for few days for faster recovery. If your symptoms are milder then do steam inhalation with over the counter anti cold medicines
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
