Black fungus risk factor: Diabetes (uncontrolled) Steroids high dose Hospital exposure Unsterile masks. HIV You have none of the above risk factors. Eye heaviness and strain can be due to refractive error, do you wear spectacles? The black fungus does not come out of nose. It will perforate the skull /palate (it erodes the bones)

Next Steps

watch for : double vision, red eyes,watery eyes,cheek pain. And please stop watching covid news on TV. Black fungus isn't Black plague, only people with risk factors mentioned above get this disease. so stop panicking ✌
