Brief Answer:
Go to the surgery

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

I have gone through your query; and I personally suggest to you that you may go for the surgery, if sinus infection is progressive. You can be taken up for surgery under an antibiotic cover. Post operatively the antibiotics should be able to cover for any infection that might be leading to this fever.

Regards
