Hi,
Allergic rhinitis might be associated with some mass within nose most probably polyps within
sinuses. Further children do have tonsils and
adenoids which adds to the problem causing problem within the throat. She needs thorough examination by an ENT as rightly decided by you.
General advise:
1. Avoid allergens and protect from allergic environment or conditions
2. Use ACs with HEPPA filters and do maintainance regularly
3. Stay away from pets and furry animals, clothes, carpets
4. Use vacuum cleaners at home
5. Use face masks - you need to explain your kid that it will help her more
6. Steam inhalation regularly twice in a day each for 10 mins
7. Continue medicines as advised by your ENT
Next Step:

2. Imaging of nose, pharynx and sinuses
Probable Action may be advised by your ENT

2. Doctor may advise you for Tonsil-adenoids removal to prevent recurrent infective episodes if he finds so.
