Nose is very congested from a cold when i sniff i get a severe shooting pain over the top of my head and down side of my neck, is this sinuses/glands?

Seasonal flu: is very common viral infection. Usually the condition resolves on its own with home care. Drink water and get a good rest. NSAIDs (e.g. Aleve, Advil) or Tylenol (acetaminophen) are also recommended every 6 hours. If they continue for more than 10-12 days, you may visit your PCP.
