I recommend establishing care with someone who knows your body and history, can do proper diagnosis, and take their advice. Not advice from someone online, who has never even seen you or heard your medical history. For all I know, you could have endured a traumatic brain injury.
Hello, please see your local physician for an examination. Unfortunately, I cannot provide diagnosis or treatment plans here.
One relatively safe practice to use is a neti-pot. It is important that you NEVER use tap water or well water in your neti-pot. Distilled or reverse osmosis water is best for use in a neti-pot. The neti-pot is a ceramic or plastic container with a narrow spout that you can place into the end of your nose and pour salt water through it. If you want to use water that is the same salinity of your body's water, add 1/8 teaspoon neti-salt to each 8 ounces of water. If you want it hypertonic (so that it dehydrates organisms which kills them), then add 1/4 teaspoon per 8 ounces of pure water.
Your nose is designed to catch dust, pollen, bacteria, viruses, etc. Using a neti-pot can wash these out of the nose, leaving the immune system with less antigen (something that the immune system reacts to) to deal with. Don't be surprised if your ears pop or you feel like you got water in your eustachian tubes. This is a normal sensation. Your body has a lot of water in it and a little more salt water won't harm you.
If you prefer to use a nasal irrigation squirt bottle, then be sure to rinse each nostril out two times with a neti-pot before you squirt water up into your sinuses with the squirt bottle. If you use only a squirt bottle, you could potentially push bacteria, viruses, dust, etc up into your sinuses and possibly cause an infection. For this reason, I recommend that you use the neti-pot first to clean out your nose and then follow it up with the squirt bottle. In my opinion, this would be a good practice when using electric nasal irrigators as well.
If you have a deviated septum, then it may take more time to open up the nasal passages, but, based on my clinical experience, the neti-pot can still open them up.
If I could (I wish I could) give everyone in the world only one item to improve the world's health, I would choose to give each person a neti-pot. It is an inexpensive way to treat sinus issues, regardless of the cause. Since I am a naturopathic doctor, I always seek to identify and treat the cause of the congestion or infection as well.

First, you need evaluation in order to choose the best constitutional medicine. However, you can start with Kali Bichromicum 6c and it should help. Read more here: https://philaholisticclinic.com/natural-treatment-for-sinus-infection/
