Rimycin and saline spray prescribed for swollen sinus.(ct), just finished triple therapy h plyori. i dont want to take antibiotics again. home remedy?

Recheck: Most cases of sinusitis would have responded to the minimum of 2 abx prescribed for H pylori and thus I am led to believe that your "sinus" problem is unlikely to be related to infection. Saline irrigation often helps but may not be enough. Consider an ENT evaluation.
