Swimmer's Sinusitis

Every time I start back swimming, I get sinusitis. I can lay off of swimming for about a month and it clears up. There appears to be some research to indicate that this happens to some people, but I cannot find any indication that there is anything that can be done to stop it. I will have to stop swimming altogether if I cannot find a way to control this. I have tried nose clips, but I still get infected sinuses. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution that worked for them?

    Bromine is not as common as chlorine. It is usually more expensive to use bromine then it is to use chlorine so a lot of pools stick with chlorine. It is used over chlorine because it is considered to be safer then using chlorine.
