Sudden sinusitis

Woke up fine yesterday, full of energy for once and went shopping, By the afternoon by throat felt weird then all of a sudden I felt sneezy and congested, but still okay. Overnight into today I woke up with the worst sinus pressure, pain and feeling awful. My head and teeth were throbbing through the night.

I’ve had sinusitis before and actually had sinus issues after having Covid in late 2021 which lasted 6 months or more

but my sinuses usually play havoc after a few days of a cold or cold or another virus. It’s never straight into sinus pain.

I’ve done 2 Covid tests and both negative. But I’m not sure how accurate they are. They are nhs ones I had spare since I had Covid 18 months ago. I will do some more.

any advice on how to get through it. Not keen on decongestants as have unstable blood pressure and quite honestly they don’t do a lot. Been steaming my face and nasal passages like crazy and taking hot showers.

is there something nasty going around? I feel rough, thankfully no aches or fever just extreme sinus pain.
