This sounds like a sinus infection. Typical symptoms are exactly what you have described. When you blow your nose, what color is it? If it's at all greenish you have a sinus infection.
A doctor will prescribe antibiotics and something to dry up your nose. The headache, feeling like it's going to explode, will be relieved with a sudafed (just one) and some Tylenol. You probably have a low grade fever, too.
Go to the doctor. You can go to a walk-in Clinic, they're open 7 days a week from 9am to 9pm all over the country. They take health insurance and you'll be in & out in half an hour. No appointment necessary. If your regular doctor can get you in today, go see them. If not, go to a walk in clinic. Look in your phone book to find one, they're under Walk In Clinic or Clinics.
I hope you feel better soon, go to the doctor then get right back into bed or lay on the couch for a few days. Take care! And please take ALL of your antibiotics, every last one. Take them with a full meal, lots of milk or water to keep them from upsetting your stomach.

The fastest and safest way to get rid of sinus headache or migraines is accupressure, a form of acupuncture without needles, -- (Shiatsu) quick and effective. Migraines take only about 5 minutes to get rid of.
For sinus, you will want to repeat the treatment a couple times during the day. You can do it anywhere and can learn how to do it easily - just search for Instant Migraine Treatment with Shiatsu and you get great resources.
Since I learn best by "seeing", not reading, try this: http://www.migraineandheadache.com/
for a video instructor, and video treatments.
When you take pain relievers on a regular basis for more than two or three days each week, they can make the pain receptors more sensitive than usual. This means when the pain medicine wears off, these hyper-sensitive receptors turn on to produce a new headache. You're then going down the slippery slope of more pain medicines followed by more headaches and migraines. To stop this vicious cycle you have to stop the medicine which means you're going to go through a severe and painful detox that will last for about three days.
Since even medicine like aspirin and Tylenol type substances can trigger the rebound effect, Dr. Fred Sheftell, the director and founder of The New England Center for Headache, believes the situation to be so serious that he thinks there should be labels on these and other drugs warning of the rebound effect.
So for an effective natural treatment, ...Shiatsu works FAST, and you can learn it yourself, without recurring drug costs and complications.

Sounds like a sinus infection. Call your doctor and get an appointment, or go and get Tylenol Sinus pills and drinks tons of water. You could also have migrane headaches. You might want to get check out.

Headaches can be caused by minor problems
like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more serious reasons
like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can
have harmful side effects, so it is better to
modify your lifestyle. More information available at
