Question

I'm really worried about this ongoing issue I've been having. It all started with just one nostril being stuffy, and I thought it was just a regular flu or runny nose, so I didn't pay much attention and took some over-the-counter meds. But here I am, 9 months later, and it's still not better. Now I've got these headaches around my forehead and the back of my head, and the mucus drainage smells really badnot like the usual kind. Plus, every time I try to clear my nose, I feel this pressure in my ears, which even causes me to cough. I haven't seen a doctor yet, but from what I've looked up, I'm suspecting it's some kind of sinus infection. What should I do?
