HI
Greetings from Dr.Divakara.P Thanks for posting your query.
Your symptoms are suggestive of Sinus Infection. Most of the time Sinus infections will subside in few days .
But numbness in hands has to be evaluated as it is not seen in Sinus Infection. It could be either a problem in Nerves or due to Calcium deficiency. For that I would advise you to get a Serum Calcium Ionised test done and revert back to me .
As of your Sinus Infection is concerned I recommend you to do Steam Inhalation 3-4 times a day , drink hot water , Avoid cold drinks , cold foof and avoid Citrus fruits.
You can also take Tyelenol for headache.
Hope this information was useful to you. Any clarifications feel free to ask .
