HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the rhinitis then it could be due to some allergic condition and it may not be infection that could needs antibiotic, I would suggest to have Tab Loratadine with Pseudoephedrine, three times in day, have more hot drinks, try steam inhalation, hope this information helps.
