hello and welcome to health care magic,
You seem to have an acute infection which is not getting relieved by just simple antibiotics. You can do these:
-take only warm water
-do not take head bath
-continue antihistamines for two weeks or so. Your doctor will know about this
-start anti reflux measures along with pantoprazole in consultation with your doctor.
-if you do not feel better then you must take a complete blood profile along with chest X ray and get back to me or any ENT with the report
regards
Dr Sriram nathan
