Hello,
You have a long term problem of nasal infections and allergy to dust.
When there is nasal infections there is increased blood flow in the nose which is body reaction to the infection or the allergen in your case you said its dust .Then you have blocked sensation and so the nasal fluid is secreted more in amount which drains down in throat or from nose which you feel as discharge and when it dries up there is crust formation.
You need to get ENT consultation done . For proper examination to see for the disease and then you require to get done CT scan of nose and paranasal sinuses to see for the anatomical abnormality in nose and to see for the infection in the sinuses. Then the further treatment can be planned.
