Hi,
How are you? It is good that the tumor has not changed in size. Sinus infection may recur and it is best that you have this checked by your doctor for proper evaluation. Imaging studies may also be done to rule this out. It is also important that you inform your doctor if your present medicine is not helping for proper management. Complementary medicine such as acupuncture  may also help. Take care and do keep us posted.
