In the winter, I spend more time with sinus infections than without. I feel like I've tried everything, but relief is temporary at best.

edit: Thanks for the tips everyone. Upvotes all around! Some of these suggestions I've tried, others are new to me. I'm going to give them all a shot. Looking forward to breathing again!

Do you have a house? Do you regularly change your furnace filters? Is your house over 10 years old and had the ducts cleaned?

I know a guy that would get sinus infections yearly and had his ducts cleaned, problem went away. He was rather extreme and does it yearly, but it works for him and spending a few hundred a year is worth it to not have sinus problems every year.
