Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to sinusitis. The symptoms of sinusitis include nasal obstruction or congestion that causes difficulty breathing through your nose.
I recommend continuing using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen three times a day. I suggest to use saline nasal spray.
I also recommend to finish the cycle of antibiotics and drink a lot of liquids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
