What Is The Treatment For Mucosal Hypertrophy And Thickening With A Polypoid With Complete Blockage?

Hi there - I have been having terrible Sinus headaches for the past 9 months above my left eyebrow on the left Frontal Sinus. The headaches start at around 11 am and continue through the afternoon until evening. Frontal forehead is tender and very painful to the touch. Had a CT scan and Mucosal Hypertrophy and thickening with a Polypoid with complete blockage of the left frontal sinus are the findings. Steroid pill and spray are not helping. What are my options in your opinion. The headaches have been worsening over the past 2 months.
