I have had a blocked nose and yellow mucus when i blow my nose and a headache around my face constantly for about 2 weeks now. what can i take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doctor can evaluate: If it is bacterial sinusitis, it is treated with antibiotics to kill bacteria in the sinuses, plus a decongestant (often a combination such as Claritin-D or Zyrtec-D), and a steroid nasal spray such as Nasonex or Flonase to decrease the swelling in the nose, to allow sinuses to drain better. Persistent sinusitis symptoms may need longer courses of antibiotics or an ENT doctor's exam.
