Brief Answer:
hi, congested nose and throat.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, analyzing your symptoms looks like you have allergic rhino pharyngitis.
Twitching of eye is not related to this.
If a patient with these symptoms come to my clinic, I would prescribe anti histamines with decongestant tablet for 5 days.
If symptoms does not subside, then consult doctor.
Avoid eating oily foods and cold items for a week.
