Doctor: You are suffering from allergy which can present in many forms and in your case it is in the form of Allergic Rhinitis. First of all you should avoid dusty, smoky atmosphere and strong smells as much as you can. Take antihistaminics like cetrizine or allegra or loratadine. Also take montair 10 mgm once a day, fluticasone nasal spray 1 squirt per nostril twice a day. Avoid  junk food and foods and drinks with strong flavours and artificial colouring agents and preservatives. Go out in the fresh early morning air and do some deep breathing exercises.
