Hello & thank you for submitting your question.
Upon reviewing your medical history & the symptoms you report, it sounds as if you're suffering from sinusitis, either acute or chronic. This can be caused by a variety of things including allergies, microorganisms (such as mold), or even general inflammatory conditions.
If the symptoms have persisted for a while (i.e., months) without response to the medications you report taking, then it would be reasonable to check back with your physician for a change in your medication regimen and possible adjunct laboratory testing. If this is a relatively new condition, it may take a little time to respond to the medication.
If there is any severe change in the symptoms, please see your doctor immediately. In addition to medication, surgery may be considered, however this would be after a while of treatment without response. I hope you are feeling better soon.
