yes, you need to get a prescription nasal spray like nasonex, flonase, astelin. so go to the doctor. you see, afrin is a decongestant, and prescription sprays are antihistamines and steriods…. a totally different ball game. decongestants are the worst because it causes everything to cake up in your sinuses ultimately causing more congestion and pain. GOT IT?

In addition to the above answer, increase the humidity in your sinuses. You can do this using a humidifier in your home, or using a saline nasal spray. It is not necessarily allergies, but if the problem continues, see your physician.

Sinus Pressure
To relieve the sinus pain, start with a hot wash cloth on the face and eyes. Repeat a few times that will help until the next procedure is completed.You can buy a saline solution spray bottle at the Pharmacy along with Nasonex. Nasonex is a nasal spray used once a day, preferable in the morning when you wake.
This medication works and is worth the trip to the doctor for the prescription. First part you clean out the nasal cavity using the saline then use nasonex only two pumps on each side. Stop smoking if you are a smoker, and stay out of smoke filled areas. Take your allergy medicine every morning. Never consider surgery, the infections come back and it is very painful.There is no quick or permanent fix for this recurring infection.
