How can i help cure my sinus infection/hay-fever w/o seeing a doctor?

Q:

A: Locally applied antihistamine drugs (sprays, drops, creams). If it persists and progresses to being unbearable – inhalers and medications containing corticosteroids (pills or injections) to reduce the general allergic immune reaction (swelling, redness, itching). Of course, being from another country, I don’t know the names of the drugs of these categories used in your country, and I don’t know whether you can buy and use them on your own. Be careful, however, not to overdose on antihistaminics and corticosteroid drugs, since they are not harmless – might cause side effects and, in time, cause developing of insensitivity to the active substance.
