Hi thanks for contacting HCM.

Noted you are having vasomotor rhinitis
It is a form of non allergic rhinitis

Rhinitis means inflammation of nasal mucosa.
Here there might dilated vessel inside nie lead to congestion and nasal blockage.

Treatment option start with simple saline nasal spray and oral benadryl...

If needed fluticasone nasal spray can prescribed which is antiinflammatory spray.

If still No benefit then finally ipratropium bromide spray available...

Avoid nose irritant like smoke , dust etc...

Take care.
