My daughter is 5 and has chronic sinusitis due to allergies. It has been about 3 yrs. She is on zyrtec and now I give her sudafed with it because she is always stuffed up. She goes for only 3 months and has to go back to antibiotics to clear her passages. She had a MRI and that showed inflammation, but no polyps or anything obstructing her passages, so there is no physical reason why. I am so tired of her having to deal with this and she never complains, but you can see she doesnt feel well, she is just accustomed to it. Do you have any idea I might try or has anyone else gone through this? I am not for surgury --- there must be something I can do (have tried vapor inhalant w/ essential oils-it helps, but she hates it) I have done the propping of the head, cool mist, you name it. Now she goes to bed crying she cant breathe and I have given her the allergy med, the sudafed , and even nasal decongestant. Please help!!
