Q: Crippling Frontal Sinus Pain

Hi, I'm really hoping someone can help me.

My hubby has had Sinus problems since before we've been together, which is about 4 years. I cant remember a day he didnt wake up without being stuffy. One thing I've tried to replace is his pillow becuase he's had it for years and years even before I met him. I think most of it is dust mites and dust!!

Anyway he has sinus attacks about twice a year and now just recently when he wakes up the sinus pain above his eye near his brow is so bad that his eye waters and he is crippled by it. He cant work or think. He takes Sudafed and other painkillers but they are not working for this bout.

He went to a doctor about a year ago who told him it is something he pretty much just has to manage with drugs and lifestyle and that any surgery is not really worth it.

Is there any other treatments, including natural therapies, that anyone can suggest?
