Answer 1

Ick, that sounds bad. The nausea could be from all the drainage going into your stomach. The sinus pressure makes me think sinus infection. Is the drainage a weird greenish color?

You might need to get on antibiotics if you have an infection, and you'd have to see a doctor for that.

If it's just the flu, there's not much doctors can do. I usually take Tylenol Cold and Flu. I find it really helps with the aches, chills and fever and just makes me feel a little better. I usually take vitamin c and zinc and stuff to help speed up the healing process a little, but it might be too late for that.
