I'd like to understand why i keep getting a sinus infection. ?

Possible anatomical: There are several possible causes for recurrent sinus infections, including anatomical anomalies (deviated septum, underdeveloped sinus cavities, etc.), perennial allergies, and immune deficiency. Sometimes colds or allergic rhinitis is over-diagnosed as being a sinus infection. I recommend seeing an ENT to help determine if you actually have sinus infections, and if so, the underlying cause.
