I've been dealing with this heavy sinus issue for about 6 months now, and it's driving me crazy. I notice there's not much mucus, but I sneeze a lot, even when I try using steam. Whenever I take Montek LC, it seems to help, but if I skip even one day, my eyes feel really heavy and my nose starts running like crazy. It feels like the air is somehow getting into my nose and causing all this trouble. My doctor suggested I might need to take Montek LC forever or use an inhaler to clear the mucus. I'm really hoping for a more permanent solution. What do you think I should do?

That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.
