I can't answer your specific questions about the wrist as surely it is dependent on the plate placement and degree of healing, and regarding sinusitis, it can be very variable depending on which sinuses, how well they still drain, etc. As with most things, it will come down to individual experimentation. I think that non-weight bearing stretching that helps restore range of motion would be helpful, though.
You might be interested in this book as a resource, though: Yoga as Medicine which addresses numerous health issues and give suggested poses. For wrist stuff, I really like very gentle, passive work, and this book: Conquering Carpal Tunnel and other RSI which is useful even for NON-carpal tunnel sufferers. The stretches are very, very gentle.

You might try acupressure for your sinuses. I have found it very helpful for headaches and neck soreness. There are specific pressure points for sinus issues. Here is more info:
http://www.acupressure.com/blog/?p=1748 As for wrist issues, JB Berns Freedom Restoration (aka Rehab Your Body at Home) has a good Hand & Wrist section (See cardiomama's review on this page): http://www.videofitness.com/reviewsd...iew.php?id=152 Also, Lee Holden has some Qi Gong DVDs that have nice wrist mobility exercises. I think the Qi Gong for Joints & Bones one has a wrist section. http://www.exercisetoheal.com/ Yoga is hard on the wrists, so that wouldn't be my first choice. And I think that the forward bends in yoga would be murder on sinuses.

Have you tried a neti pot? It is actually an ancient yoga practice and I find it very effective for relieving sinus congestion.
