Since he is already on treatment for sinusitis he can travel to area of high altitudes. He needs to continue treatment during the days of traveling. You need to keep in touch with your doctor so that you can contact him in case you need during traveling
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
