Hello!
Thank you for asking on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would recommend peforming a brain CT scan and a sinus discharge bacterial culture.
It may be a fungal or allergic sinus infection as it has been active for such a long time.
In such case treatment with antiallergic agents or antifungal agents may be needed.
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Aida
