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.

Chronicity: You appear to have a chronic sinus condition. You should see an ENT dr, get a confirmatory ct of the sinuses and get professionally treated, which may include long term antibiotics, possible steroids, and decongestants and or eventual sinus surgery. Best wishes.
