I am scheduled for a total thyroidectomy in 9 days. About 10 days ago, I came down with a mild cold. It is better but I still have sinus pressure. No stuffy nose or any nasal symptoms. How can I clear this up so I dont have to reschedule surgery?

Can sleeping in a cold house with windows open cause a cold? Have stuffy nose & sinus pressure/draining after sleeping 2 nights with windows open in a cold house. Or is it just the sudden change in temperature outside that caused it?
