Throat infection from last 6 months

2019-08-14 12:04:00
I am getting throat infection from last 6 months. This is very regular and happens every 10-15 days. Blood report and everything is normal. There is white linings in throat while infected. Doctor advised to take xray for sinuses as everything else seemed to be normal. The sinuses xray report says: Opacification of bilateral maxillary sinuses-? Sinusitis Bony nasal septum is fairly central in position. Surrounding soft-tissues are normal. I have attached the xray along with the report. May i know what does this mean? Do i need to consult a doctor for sinuses??
