How To Heal Sinus Infections Naturally?

I have had several sinus infections recently. I am 61 & never had them before. They were in the lower jaw area. I went to dr. & was on antibiotic & cortisone for 10 days. This one I woke up with today is under my right eye . very painful. I want a natural approach this time.

1. . Since it is occurring frequently thus probably disease has progressed to CHRONIC Rhino sinusitis.
2. Avoid: heavy, slimy and acidic food, curd, mustard oil, excess physical exertion, sunlight-dust areas, exposure to strong winds, day sleeping, smoking, potato, green leafy vegetables. Cold water/food
3.Take:old brown rice, soup of moong dal, black grapes, cow’s or goat milk, garlic, lukewarm water to drink, black pepper, dried ginger, honey, mulethi, launga
4. Take Raw ginger+ raw turmeric: [2 gm each] and fry in cow’s ghee [6 gm] and thereafter add 6 gm jaggery and take at bed time [during night]
5. Successful prescription for you will be
i. Mahalakshmi vilas ras+ shringa bhasma+ Shuddha man shila+sitopladi churan: twice a day with cow’s ghee
ii. Chitrak haritki: at bed time [20gm]
iii. Vyoshadi churan: after meals, two times

PS
You can contact an Ayurveda Physician there for the Dosage recommendations
iv. In Ayurveda we hold that nose is the gateway to head, thus start practicing NASYA [errhine therapy], after consulting/guidance of an Ayurveda physician [with shadbindu tail]
v. As attacks are frequent take high protein diet : egg (white), soyamilk, pumpkin, squash, watermelon, peanuts, almonds, if non-vegetarian (meat) are choices , legumes, sprouted pulses/cereals, milk with protein powder [since blockage of nose is an issue thus yogurt and beans are not recommended] and deep breathing Exercises [anulom vilom]
vi.     
i. Vitamin A: helps to maintain Thymus gland which is a powerful antiviral gland: thus mango, carrots, cantaloupe, egg yolk, apricots, pumpkin, papaya, are ideal.
ii. Vitamin C: is needed for proper functioning of immune system: amla is best
iii. Vitamin E: is a powerful anti oxidant which helps to stimulate antibody production: peanuts, dried apricots, cooked spinach, taro root can be taken
iv. Vitamin B is important for the activity of phagocytes: eggs, cheese, pistachio, raw garlic, sunflower and sesame oil.
