A 30-year-old male presents with a runny nose, congestion, and sinus pressure that has persisted for more than a week. He also reports thick, green nasal discharge. What is the likely diagnosis and recommended treatment?
This patient's symptoms are suggestive of a sinus infection, or sinusitis, particularly given the persistence of symptoms and the presence of thick, green nasal discharge. Sinusitis can often be a complication of a common cold. Treatment may include analgesics for pain, decongestants, and potentially antibiotics if a bacterial infection is suspected.
