Detailed Answer:
Hii. It looks like you are having allergic rhinitis which is inflammation of your nose. Please consult an Ent surgeon. In the meantime you can start nasoclear saline nasal drops, antiallergic tablet. Please also start taking steam inhalation. Do a x ray paranasal sinus. Only after consulting with ent surgeon you may need to start some antibiotic as it is infected as evident from yellow colour of discharge. You may also need to start nasal spray. Stay away from allegens like dust, cold. Please review if you have any queries.
