Blocked nose and facial pain
I have tonsillitis from last 1 year.but from last 2 months it is better.no throat pain and discomfort.
But now I have blocked nose and heaviness in my nasal area around face.
Can it be sinusitis?
And sometimes in between I feel pain in my left ear. Is it all related to tonsilitis and sinusitis?
