Brief Answer:
Need proper line of treatment protocol
Detailed Answer:
Hai,
Yes u can take idly and dosa. Milk is allowed.
No need for acne treatment in allopathy. Kindly follow the ayurvedic medicine . It is well enough to cover your skin problems.
As both skin and respiratory problems are interlinked. As allergies would have been causing you the frequent cold and sinus problems.we should fix the issues.
as treating both skin and sinus problem need physical and systemic examination,so I suggest to visit an ayurvedic physician in person to evolve you properly and guide to have better treatment protocol for both your skin problem and sinus problems.
Hope I answered your query.kindly let me know if there any clarification.
