What Is The Treatment For Chest And Sinus Infections?

Hi I suffer with cold hands and feet, constant chest infections and sinus infections. I keep fit but now weeze after my workout, although it dosent affect my breathing whilst excercising. My doctor has put me on a course with a cenil modulite steroid inhaler. I now have a fresh sinus and chest infection and this weakness is starting to depress me. Can I do anything else to clear this problem?
