I understand sinus infection( as many other bacterial or viruses
induced
diseases, ) being a way of the body to get rid of toxins by products
of
metabolism when the normal means to do so are overwhelmed.( intestine,
liver  etc...)
the body take advantage of the natural secretions of the mucosas or
skin to
become a vehicle for the expulsion of thoses molecules ( secretions
get
exacerbated
i had chronic sinus infections for many years that took few years to
slowly
clear completely once i switch to raw food. Now every time i
reintroduce a
denatured food in my diet  , my sinus get clogged the next day.
