No need to worry as I understand it could be a allergic in origin but as you didnt get benifited from medication we need to go for some investigation . I suggest you some test to confirm our diagnosis:
1. Complete blood count
2. Xray paranasal sinuses .
PLease provide me details of followings ;
Is there history of allergi in family .
2.Is your child suffer from same eariler
3.is this complaint associated with cough / fever / body ache / rash on any part of body / redness of eye/ difficulty in breathing / foreign body sensation in noasal cavity / pain in ear / difficulty in hearing .
