Hi,
You are having chronic sinusitis problem and according to report you will need an operation. Mostly your doctor will prefer functional endoscopic sinus surgery. The surgery will help in improving drainage of secretions and ventilation through sinuses. Meanwhile polyp also will also be removed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
