Actually there is. They put a baloon up your nose and inflate it to expand the passage between your sinus and throat

Try taking a teaspoon of LOCAL honey each day. This will help your body develop immunity to all the air born irritants in your area. Even though you don't have allergies in the summer, the honey will still take care of your problem. Don't jump into surgery. Try this for a winter and see how you feel. Natural remedies are the safest and work the best WITH your body to fix the problem. If you let someone fool around with your upper respiratory area, you will probably end up with a deviated septum or something else equally as unsatisfactory. The doctors never guarantee that everything will be great after they're done. Usually, if what they do doesn't work, they're always ready to take more of your money to try something else that is not guaranteed either. Try LOCAL honey-you have nothing to lose. You will find that you have less cold and flu symptoms as well.

That is a rather drastic solution- although there are circumstances under which it is warranted.
You might instead try cleaning the filters to your heating system, and otherwise dusting a lot. I think you're seeing your allergies flair up in winter because you're closed in the house along with all that trapped dust.
Another thing you might try is adding a little humidity to the air: Believe it or not, dry air can cause coughing and runny noses. If you can't get a humidifier, try setting a big pan of water on the stove and allow it to simmer.
Good luck.

Hi,
It depends on the type of allergy. If you are having sinusitis involving, maxillary sinuses, then you can undergo Fess surgery. This is an endoscopic surgery to widen the opening of sinus to help drain the mucus fats and relieve symptoms.

You have to see your allergist and ask him/her about starting allergy shots.
