General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Thanks for your query .I had gone through your query and understand your concern.
Brief answer:Excessive responsiveness towards allergens like dust,cold ,smoke,anxiety etc are the causes of your problems

Detailed answer:If I were the treating physician,I would look for other symptoms of allergic rhinitis like nasal irritation ,blockage etc and rule out asthma by symptoms analysis(cough,wheeze or chest tightness and breathlessness) and perform objective test if asthma suspected.

Then I would treat you thinking a case of allergic rhinitis as follows:
>Avoid triggers (eg.dust,cold,smoke etc) so far it is possible
>Wash nasal cavity with water or normal saline
>Oral antihistamine like loratadine
>Steroid nasal spray to control frequent attack.

Since this requires prescribed medicine,so my suggestion is :Please meet your local doctor to confirm the diagnosis and get treated accordingly.

Hope this helps you.
If you have further queries ,please feel no hesitation to write us.
Wish you good health.
