Hi welcome to HCM..

Here you might have persistent sinus infection....

First para nasal sinus x ray done for rule out sinusitis.....

Nasal examination by rhinoscopy done for rule out nasal polyp....

Here for congestive symptom antihistaminic drug taken....
Steam inhalation taken with eucalyptus added in water...

If cause not clear MRI or CT scan of sinus need for detail investigation...
If you are immunocompromised then aspergillosis or mucormycosis might ruled out ....this investigation helpful for it...

If needed endoscopic drainage might done with biopsy ....

Peppermint oil inhalation help in relieving headache by increase blood flow and improve ventilation....

Avoid exposure with allergen less like dust , pollen etc....

Your rhinoscopy and detail respi examination needed by treating doctor and accordingly treated or investigated....

Take care....
