In my opinion right now MRI is not needed. But these are not good signs. Need thorough examination in view of prevalence of fungal infections in post covid patients. Without other relevant information nothing else can be said for now.

You have features of sinusitis so xray PNS waters view can also be done if you want to avoid MRI
As far as treatment is concerned steam inhalation with vipocaps is the best treatment so far Do it twice or thrice a day you will feel better
Also take some antiallergic like montilekast and levocetrizine combination and paracetamol for headach
Thankyou
