Hi..
Thanks for the query..

It seems like Allergic rhinitis and can be due to allergic reaction to any known or unknown allergen like pollen, animal danders etc as well as mold can be a cause..
I would suggest you to take anti allergic medication like Levocetrizine or Allegra, take nasal decongestant spray like Xylometazoline, do steroid nasal sprays and inhalers..
You can clean your room and remove mold and any other irritant if present..
Steam inhalations, saline nasal irrigation and using a humidifier can further relieve.

Hope this helps..

Regards.
