Trauma to the nose : Make sure your nasal septum is not deviated or fractured! best to get it examined by ENT

Ice packs,NSAIDs.: The pressure maybe due to contusion to your nose and the swelling can make you feel like you have congestion in your sinuses. Ice packs could relieve the swelling and Ibuprofen , aleve (naproxen) or Aspirin can help the pain. If the discomfort continues, you might need to have an x-ray of the face to make sure you had no fracture.
