It's usually hard to tell but the best way is, take for index finger and your thumb and gently tap the area on the sides of nose!. *close to your nose but not on your nose* Your thumb and your index finger should be on either side of your nose!.
If it feels sensitive to touch then it's your sinus's an infection is usually next!.!.!. that means you have A LOT of drainage so when you blow your nose, not only will it hurt but the mucus will be discolored so to speak!. It'll range from yellow to green!. And yes your throat would hurt!. It's time to see a doctor or get over the counter medication!. I typically go to the doctor though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
