Allergies?: allergic rhinitis is often linked to asthma or hyperactive airways. The best thing to do is get tested by your physician. A simple spirometer or other tests may be helpful. Good luck

Get nose open: Try a nasal steroid for a week or so to see if this helps. If problem persists, consider seeing an allergist since you likely have hay fever (allergic rhinitis)
