Second opinion: I would consider a second opinion. The description you provided sounds bacterial in nature and an antibiotic would be indicated. You do not want to have your problem turn into chronic sinusitis which could require a surgical procedure to provide relief. Earlier treatment can prevent that from happening. Good luck and hope you get well soon.

See an ENT doctor: You need to be seen again and fully examined and perhaps evaluated with imaging studies to determine what is going on and the extent of involvement. You have a severe chronic infection and the potential for very severe complications of sinusitis exist and need to be assessed. If your doctor is unfamiliar with these you may need a second opinion.
