I've been dealing with this ongoing cough issue for about a year now, and it's really starting to worry me. I think it might have something to do with my epiglottis. Could you offer any suggestions or advice on what might be happening and how I can address it?

I've been having this issue where there's a really smelly mucus coming from just one nostril, and I can't seem to shake off this runny nose. On top of that, I've been feeling kind of lethargic, and I've got this persistent headache thats just on one side of my forehead. Sometimes, I even notice some swelling on one of my cheeks. Could these symptoms be connected, and do you think I should be worried about something more serious?

That could be sinusitis needs a course of antibiotics,visit your ENT docotor for appropriate management and do steam inhalation for relief.
