hi,
High bp and sinus infection is not related. You are nasal steroid it can cause but not this much and less likely a cause of hypertension.
You need to be started on medicine, I usually give tab Telmisartan 40 mg once a day to my patient.
Also avoid salty diet. Also regular exercises and get your lipid profile and sugars tested.
keep track of bp.
