Brief Answer:
You should get an x-ray sinus and hearing test

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Please consult an Ent surgeon. You get an x-ray sinus and hearing test also.

The clicking sensation of the sinuses may be due to acute sinusitis. Tinnitus may be due to many reasons. It may be due to hearing loss, loud exposure of sound.

Get your hearing test done. If it is normal then you have to ignore the sound. Because tinnitus cannot be treated permanently. Ignore the sound. Lead a relax and stressfree life.

For sinusitis, you can use Fluticasone nasal spray, steam inhalation.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
