Q: sinus infection, allergies for a year

So Starting about last year in October I started to get a bit sick. It was the symptoms of a cold. So i thought I would wait it out, but now it's been more than a year later and it's still here.

Within that year it got pretty bad, especially during school. constantly making weird noises with my nose and stuff, and having to blow it, and when there are no tissues in sight i am screwed. I got that effect wear it's hard to breathe because when you breath in it feels like you have to cough something up, but nothing can come out. Now my throat hurts and my nose is sickly running, and i just feel like the mucus is really thick and stuck somewhere in my sinuses.


I went to the doctor and they took x rays and said i had a sinus infection, and they also suspected allergies so they gave me antibiotics and some immitation-claritin. I know the antibiotics didn't help, but i think the immation-claritin did. And i haven't been able to taste food for forever. and my ears are plugged with earwax, and my hearing is impaired because of it.


I just want to chop off my nose.

I guess you have chronic sinusitis, because this bothers you for a period much longer that 12 weeks (sinus infection that lasts for longer period than 12 weeks is known as chronic infection).
Are you experiencing frequent headaches and tenderness in the face or aching behind the eyes?
Did you doctor find out what is causing this condition?
