Sinus, runny nose, fever & throat infect
I have been suffering from acute sinusitis along with a heavy runny nose for the past two days. The pain from the sinusitis has spread all over the forehead, along the eyebrows, nose and to the cheek bones as well. I have been sneezing continuously and along with a low fever I am also having problems swallowing anything as it is hurting near the tonsils (which has been a problem for me over the past due to infections and pharyngitis).
Please help!
