Pain on just the right side of the head behind the right eye

For well over a year now I have been dealing with an on and off again pain in my upper right sinus.

Cold air really seems to aggravate it. I also do have a deviated septum. I get a lot of post nasal drip. If I am in A/C then it gets much worse. Some nights I have to sleep with a bandage covering my right nasal passage or the pain during the night will wake me up. I mostly take Noproxen for the pain but have stronger Vicodin that I use for a bulging disc in my back but try not to use that much.

I have tried all the home remedies and lots of different types of medicines recommended by my pharmacist but it always comes back after a day or so.

I might go two days pain free and then suffer for 5 straight days.

Lately I have been trying cutting out different things from my normal food diet, first was Chocolate as I read that can cause problems and at first it seemed to help for a few days but then the pain and pressure came back even with no chocolate in my diet.

So now I am still unsure what could be causing this problem.
