Brief Answer:
Antibiotics might not help with your sinusitis
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for using the Ask a Doctor service. Your query has a number of components and I will try to address as much as I can.
Sinusitis is an infection of sinuses, the air pockets contained in our skull. It is most often caused due to viral although occasionally there is a superadded bacterial infection present. Antibiotics or any other medicines cannot reach the sinuses properly and sinuses have a poor blood supply. Antibiotics may relieve the superadded bacterial infections, but the unresolved underlying infection may flare up subsequently. Taking steam inhalation can provide relief as it helps in opening up the openings of the sinuses that have been blocked by thickened mucus. Water in form of vapour will reach deep inside and will help in dilute the thickened mucus. Take rest and plenty of fluids to drink. You may take naproxen 500 mg tablet when required, in case you have pain.
I do not understand the exact significance of needling. It id not a part of modern medicine that I am trained in, and therefore would not like 4o comment.
About the mineral deficiencies, they can be suitably supplemented.
Feel free to write back.
