Thanks for posting your query.
You symptoms of nasal blockage, sneezing and throat pain seems to be due to upper respiratory (throat) infection.
You are already on antihistamine (cetrizine) and decongestants; but as the symptoms are not relieved you may need a course of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drugs. These are prescription only medication which can be bought using a prescription written by a doctor / ENT specialist.
Therefore I suggest you to visit a doctor nearby and get a prescription. In the meantime continue cetrizine. Also take steam inhalation and warm saline gargles thrice a day. Keep yourself warm and covered to protect against cold weather and allergens.
Hope this information helps you. I will be available to answer any further query which you may have.
Regards
