A doctor has provided 1 answer

Repeated sinus pain as you describe should be investigated by an ENT specialist (ears/nose/throat) Allergies are the most likely cause, though repeated viral infections could possibly factor in to the mix. If you have been treated with antibiotics each month, there might be a resistant bacterial infection or possibly even a fungal infection, though both of these are less likely.
