Yes, acute sinusitis can cause pain, pressure, and discomfort in the nose and around the face, along with congestion, runny nose, and sometimes fever. Rest, staying hydrated, steam inhalation, and over-the-counter pain relievers can help, but if symptoms are severe or last more than a week, see a doctor for proper treatment.

Frequent itching in the nostrils is often due to allergies, dryness, or irritants like dust, while frequent bowel movements with solid stools can be related to diet, stress, or increased gut sensitivity. You can manage nasal itching by keeping your nose clean and moist with saline drops, avoiding dust/allergens, and staying well hydrated; if needed, an antihistamine may help after medical advice. For bowel symptoms, maintain a balanced diet with adequate fibre, drink plenty of water, and avoid foods that trigger frequent motions (like very spicy, oily, or caffeinated items). Try to keep a regular eating and bathroom routine and manage stress. If symptoms persist, worsen, or are associated with weight loss, blood in stools, or severe discomfort, consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

Pus discharge from the nose may suggest a bacterial sinus infection, which usually needs a course of antibiotics prescribed by a doctor after proper evaluation. You can use over-the-counter saline nasal sprays and steam inhalation to help clear mucus and relieve discomfort in the meantime. It is important not to self-medicate with antibiotics and to consult a doctor to identify the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.
