The frothy opacification may be consistent with the sinusitis that you have since location of pain and abnormality on CT are consistent. It is possible for the fluid to slowly drain with control of infection with appropriate antimicrobial. What may help may be to put your head face down to help drainage; but you could also have ENT specialist help you drain it artificially. Antibiotic for long eno

The Mayo Clinic has shown that chronic or recurrent sinusitis may be a reaction to mold, often found in damp or water-damaged buildings. This is unlike occasional (bacterial) or seasonal (allergic) sinusitis, and is best treated by a provider who understands the cause.
