In my opinion sinus infection has no any adverse effect on sperm health. For conception point of view sexually transmitted disease are of primary concern as they may affect the fetus too. Also diseases in female are of more concern as fetus is going to reside inside her for coming 9 months.
I will advise you to try for conception without any hesitation.
