For a sinus infection many people find nasal irrigation to be helpful. Personally I hate nose sprays let alone putting water in my nose so it's not for me but many people find it works and I hear the kind with the syringe works best. I've heard neti pots are okay but doesn't flush the sinuses like a nasal syringe does.
People tend to get sinus infections and other sinus problems in the winter time. It' likely caused by poor ventilation due to closed windows and dust particles floating around the house.
To prevent a sinus infection you should try to air out your house as much as possible, change furnace filters frequently, maybe consider getting your air ducts cleaned. If you suffer chronic sinus infections try to live in a home with wood floors and not carpets which trap dust and allergins. You can also pick up a HEPA air filter or air cleaner to get rid of airborne particles.
Many people rely on antibiotics however many are caused by virus or fungus and not bacteria therefore antibiotics won't help them. Remove any mold in your bathrooms or home or damp areas of your home.
