ii. Duration of taking Allopathic Medicine and any addiction?
iii. Is your blood sugar under control [both fasting and post prandial values]?

a. Since you are not willing to undergo Surgery, thus preventive & Prophylactic Aspect is mentioned:

. Drink liquid-based hot vegetables in form of soup which will help liquefy mucus and promote nasal drainage, thus helping the sinuses restore to their normal state.

1.Avoid: Heavy, slimy and acidic food, curd, mustard oil, excess physical exertion, sunlight-dust areas, exposure to strong winds, day sleeping, smoking, potato, green leafy vegetables. Cold water/food
