You have taken antibiotics but they have not cleared your sinus infection fully.That sounds like the problem..the cough and headache can be accounted also the general tiredness and low energy level.Would you follow this advise ..it is sure to help you.You need to take nasal drops..OTRINOZ 3 drops each side twice daily for 5 days in a head extended supine position ,followed by steam inhalation.Also,an antihistamine Des-OD or Deslor at night and Brufen400 twice daily for 3 days with Moxclav 625 twice daily for 1week...you will be fine i feel.
