Sinus Medication Solution

I know this isn’t a sinus infection or flu (I’ve had BOTH this year and this is different). I’m pretty sure it’s hayfever/pollen as it’s just coming into spring here in Aus. I’ve got some over the counter medications and I’m downing Green Tea and spicy chili basil chicken. What are YOUR ideas?

are starting to hurt. should I go to the doctor, or just wait it out?

I have felt like this since Friday. My nose has been congested, which I know is a symptom. But I have a ear congested, and it feels block, is that a symptom of a sinus infection. I have been taking sudafed, but it does not really work. My main question is; Is having a congested ear during a sinus infection normal?
