Would A Humidifier Help In Sinitis?

Would a humidifier help my sinitis . I am on an antibodic. I have a severe sinitis on my left side of my face -- shown on a CT. Doctor has me on Levofloxacin but have been off and on it and I think I have a reaction to that particular RX. Is there another related strong antifodic. This medicine is causing my hands to burn and feel funny. Stingying It like I m losing my fingerprints... Taking that med off and on made me realize that I didn t have problems with my hands and fingers when not taking that RX.
