ALLERGY SINUSITIS: Most likely you have allergy sinusitis , or you could be having a chronic sinusitis try to take allergy medicine like zyrtec or Benadryl (diphenhydramine) at night since it could make you drowsy if persistent you might need to see ENT specialist some people benefit from saline nasal spray, some suggest local honey from your local farmer market.

See an allergist: The combination of nasal congestion and allergy symptoms are consistent with allergic rhinitis. Sinus symptoms include pain and pressure in the face, yellow-green nasal discharge and pain between the eyes or rarely pain on top of the head. Inasmuch as you do not mention these in your complaint, it is unlikely that you have sinusitis. You should consult an allergist. Decongestant, antihistamine.
