Your sinuses are not very smart things to have, kind of like your appendix. But you have them anyway. If yours are anything like my ex-wife's, they can be a real problem. She had an infection that lasted for about a decade. In hindsight, that made sense. She had her sinus opened up surgically, and a lot of nasty yucky feelings went with that surgery. Not just the drip into the throat, and the pressure/pain in her face.
I think you might do well to see a ear/nose/throat guy, and get your sinuses mapped. Methinks you have one that is serving as a hotel for some unfriendly guests.
