Medical management needs to be tried before deciding on treatment for chronic sinusitis. You need to use steroid nasal spray for few months which may improve the condition many times. If it fails then surgery is the good option
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
