Hello,
As per your clinical history, is concerned please follow like this-
1) Do a clinical examination by your doctor [ENT] and do few investigations like this to confirm [CBC with differential, nasal endoscopy, and MRI scan]
2) Discuss with your doctor about antibiotics [Doxycycline ] and decongestants tablets and sprays.
Do follow lifestyle modifications like this-
1) Try to avoid upper respiratory infections. Minimize contact with people who have colds. Wash your hands frequently with soap and water, especially before your meals.
2) Carefully manage your allergies. Work with your doctor to keep symptoms under control. Does blood differential count every month?
3) Try to avoid cigarette smoke and polluted air. Tobacco smoke and other pollutants can irritate and inflame your nasal passages.
4) Use a humidifier. If the air in your home is dry, such as it is if you have forced-air heat, adding moisture to the air may help prevent sinusitis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
