Brief Answer:
It looks like Upper respiratory Tract Infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi
As per your description,it looks like Upper respiratory Tract Infection.
Bile will be green in colour.I think it has come out .It is not pus.There is nothing serious.
For swollen glands/Sinusitis, you should take Antibiotic like Amoxycillin and anti Inflammatory tablet twice daily for 5 days to 1 week.
For Heart burn and acid reflux,I prescribe Rabeprazole along with Domperidone once daily before breakfast
Please avoid Cool drinks.
If there is no response from above medication,I prefer CT scan of the Para nasal sinuses.Management depends on the CT scan report.
Nothing to worry.
Hope I answered your query.If you have any questions,I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
