Take steam inhalation, also better to check if you have underlying asthma.
For Sinusitis you can take Syp. Sinarest OR Syp. Planokuf 1tsf. twice or thrice a day. You should be cautious if you are driving or handling heavy machinery as these syrups leads to some drowsiness.
Better consult your GP and than take proper course of treatment for Sinusitis.
