Many cases of sinusitis do not respond to antibiotics; often due to viruses or to allergy, i.e. no infection at all. Follow up with your doctor. If any doubt about the diagnosis or best treatment, ask about possible referral either to an otolaryngologist (ENT specialist) or allergy specialist. Good luck.
