Hi Reena and thank you so much for posting on our forum.

I am so sorry to hear about this sinus problem. If the initial treatment has failed, then doing more detailed investigations to understand what the reasons for the infection and treatment failure are should be undertaken. In this light, doing a culture and some images like CT scan would be helpful. if the germ is identified and the antibiotic that can treat the germ the we would be able to address it fully.

Some sinus problems need surgical management. So investigate properly and get the treatment that you deserve. An ENT specialist is the best person to consult and follow up with.

I wish you well and a speedy recovery.
