Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your symptoms can be from acute sinusitis or meningitis. In meningitis, vomiting and fever like complaints can also be present. Therefore, the history should be elicited. Your CBC, PNS X-ray also needs to be done. I suggest you to consult nearby doctor immediately for examination.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
