Brief Answer:
You are having allergic rhinosinusitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hello

From your description you seem to be having allergic rhinosinusitis. Please kindly do a X ray paranasal sinus and an endoscopy of nose. Start a fluticasone nasal spray with steam inhalation. You can start an antiallergic tablet at night. Review with reports. Stay away from allergens like dust, cold, insects. Do proper dusting of clothes, bed, mattress, curtain.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
