Even if vaccinated, please have a COVID 19 screening test. If this is not available at your physician’s office, a virtual consultation with Healthtap is available to locate a test center. Monitor temperature, drink fluids and rest. Avoid contact with others until confirmed negative for COVID. Discuss the use of nasal saline with your physician.

Hello, Once COVID is ruled out as mentioned then it could be a sinus infection which can present with multiple different symptoms. Most sinusitis is accompanied by facial pain/pressure, congestion, thick often foul smelling drainage, ear popping can occur, cough, and sometimes fever. If you have used over the counter meds like Sudafed, pain meds, saline rinse and rest, after a week see your ENT.
