My dear,
Thanks for sending your query to us.
In view of a history of productive cough not too long back i would presume this pain to be due to bacterial infection from throat travelling to para nasal sinus. This deciding factor here is that the pain should be more in the morning and becoming better by late afternoon.
If so regular tt with antibiotics,steam inhalation and nasal decongestents will be advisable.

This hopefully is not sinus involvement. For this you can put in lubricant eye drops like refresh tears or tears naturale eye drop 3 to 4 times a day and have some multivitamins for 3 to 4 weeks.As this looks like more of a muscle issue than anything deeper.
Please do get back to me in case of any further query in this regard

The pain is mostly under my eye towards the nose and when i close it right its spread over the socket . There is no pain with movement of my eye ball. Is this because of some.kind of eye strain ?

Pain due to eyestrain is likely to be due to bilateral, but it can be one sided in some cases. Well I might be wrong, but absence of any other pointing feature are against other possibilities. Therefore do try multivitamins for supportive treatment and lubricating drops.
