Believe it or not yes you can at times depending on how bad the infection is. Generally blowing the nose will cause green/yellow mucus and that's one sure sign you have a sinus infection so please see your doctor.

A humidifier would easily clear up the sinus infection. I also recommend Vicks Vapo Rub (which i own no copyright to). I use that whenever i have a sinus infection. It clears me up very quickly.

Is sinus infection bacteria?

A true sinus infection is caused by bacteria. Technically, you cannot be diagnosed with a sinus infection unless you have had symptoms (pressure above eyes or next to nose, nasal cogestion, headache) for two weeks. If the symptoms are more brief, then it could be a viral infection (caused by a virus) that goes away on its own. If it lasts for two weeks or more, go see a doctor and get antibiotics which will treat the bacterial infection.
