How Can Recurrent Sinusitis And Cough Be Treated?

I have gotten sinus infections fairly often over the past couple of years. I also have delt with ear infections often growing up. I m twenty now, had yet yet another sinus infection and got my wisdom teeth removed a week ago. I went to the doctor a week before that and they gave me a steroid shot and a 10 day amoxicillin. It helped a little, but it never cleared up. Now my nose is stopped up, I m coughing quite frequently, when I cough very hard my head starts pounding and I feel like I m about to black out,(I ve fallen twice) and my left ear has been stopped up for 5 days to the point that I can barely hear. I have tried before to take different decongestants, but nothing helps! Any ideas what I can do to at least clear my ears?

Hi and welcome to HCM!


Thanks for your question.


For chronic sinusitis with reccurent infections, get routine blood tests done to check for any allergy, infection or low immunity. I would suggest Tab Azithromycin 500mg 0-0-1 for 5 days, tab Montek lc 0-0-1 for 10 days. Take steam inhalation with vasocaps for 3- 5 times/day.

Hope this helps.

Take care
