Brief answer....given below Detailed answer... Hello, Thanks for the query. Your symptoms suggest that you are suffering from chronic sinusitis along with anxiety. Normally chronic sinusitis is always preceded by a bout of acute sinusitis which gets cured in 2-3 weeks and then symptoms persist because of various factors like... Poor drainage of sinuses Persistent inflammatory changes in sinus Build up of mucus Fungal infection Flare up of infection again and again. Symptoms of chronic sinusitis continue to wax and wane.They become severe at he time of acute infection and then they ease off and leave behind a background level of symptoms. You need to consult a ENT specialist and get the following done.. CT scan of sinuses  Nasal endoscopy  Nasal swab culture etc. Surgery can be an option if scan reveals some blockage. There are  various procedures like functional endoscopic sinus surgery ( FESS ) or ballon catheter dilatation of para nasal sinuses Ostia. Till you consult a surgeon,do the following.. Avoid cold drinks Take steam inhalation twice a day Take hot liquids Avoid going suddenly into colder temperature from hot temperature. at the end I would like to say that this is nothing serious and would be all right with proper approach and management. I hope it helps,however you may revert to me for any further query. Best of luck Thanks
