Brief Answer:
Try saline nasal douching, steroid nasal sprays. Upload the CT images.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

1. If you upload the CT Scan images, I will be able to give you an accurate assessment.

2. From what you have said, this seems to be chronic sinusitis.

3. Endoscopic Sinus Surgery is a routine surgery that can be done at any major ENT institute nearby.

4. However, current trends are towards avoiding surgery by isotonic and hypertonic saline nasal douching, medication with steroid nasal sprays, anti-allergic medication, steam inhalation and Balloon Sinuplasty.

I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any more questions I will be available to answer them.

Regards.
