The treatment should help the sinus fluid over time, and daily rinsing, also called irrigation, with a saline solution via the NeilMed squeeze bottle, a neti pot, or a water pik with nasal attachment is highly recommended to keep the stuff loosened up, hydrated, and ready to be flushed out. There are mucus thinners such as Mucinex (guaifenesin) and others, and use of decongestants shouldn't hurt, I don't think. Some use steroid sprays to minimize inflammation in the area. I think Nasocort is one that is OTC. Drink lots of fluids! Best of luck with everything.
