Suggest Treatment For Chronic Sinusitis

I suffer from chronic sinusitis and frequently fly. I have been on antibiotics every second month for the last 18 months. The left side of my face seems worse as I often can t breath through that nostril. Over the last 6-8 months I noticed that my eye is wonky and especially in photos it is definitely not as open as the other eye. Today I have really noticed it and my flying has increased a lot over the last 3-4 weeks. I am worried about what is going on.
