Low level bacterial infection in my case, which I mistook for allergies. The go to treatment recommended by doctors is Flonase or varients. Had little effect on me. A few days of Augmentin got me back to normal. YMMV of course, and Augmentin can’t be used by everyone. In my case I feel normal for the first time in 3 months or so.

I use Flonase daily which helps. In the past I have gotten two sinus infections a year which had to be treated with Augmentin, a very potent drug. When I have the actual sinus infection I am stuffed up and light headed.

I started using a saline solution, Arm & Hammer, daily and have not had a sinus infection for a year and a half. Saline solution is pretty much an alternate for using a nettie pot to clear sinuses. It is easier to use, though, since one does not have warm distilled water to use in a nettie pot.

That’s good.

Glad it worked out for you.

Sometimes people deal with health issues where the medical community cannot find the cause and you’re just stuck.
