Brief Answer:
I would first like to confirm the diagnosis dear
Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for the question .I would advise you to go for a proper consultation first as sometimes in case of severe sinusitis we need to do a X-ray and confirm the diagnosis and then need to work accordingly on the treatment . You can meanwhile take steam inhalation, A combination of antiallergic like cetrizine and phenylephrine once a day preferably at nighttime and amoxyclav tablet for five days . Hope my answer helps you . Regards
