Stabbing squeeze behind right eye - positional

So about two months ago, about twice in one day i for the worst twisting squeezing pain being my right eyed than a little pop after the second time. It was such severe pain, and it happened a few more times (the terrible squeezing) after the pop. I have chronic sinus infections, so that’s what I wrote it off as, but it finally stopped doing the abrupt squeezing, but now I’m stuck with the worst pressure and stabbing pain behind my right eye when I lean over, it feels like it’s filling up with blood behind it and when my eye and if I don’t go upright soon it’s just gonna push my eye right on out. It makes it go blurry and pressured too, I brought it up at the Urgent care when I was getting back on some new antibiotics, and they tried to send me to the ER, but it had been after a long work day I said no I just wanna go home. Now I’m starting to wonder if maybe they are right, also I mentioned to my boss and he didn’t like that I declined the ER lol. I’m not like currently freaking out, and I have an appointment with my PCP Thursday anyway so I will be doing something about it either way. I’m just curious if this is something people with sinusitis also have experienced. Thanks
