Sinus: Have Sinus CT scan. Consider endoscopic sinus surgery. More aggressive medical management, i.e. irrigations, corticosteroid spray, short term prednisone, no smoking, exposure to particulates or toxic agents.

A member asked:

My doctor said that if moxifloxacin 400mg taken once a day for 10 days doesn't help my sinus infection. Then he will prescribe Cefdinir. I have a history of severe allergic reaction including anaphylaxis to penicillin. Is it safe to take cefdinir?
