You seem to be suffering from acute rhinitis which is a common type of nose problem during pregnancy. You should avoid using decongestant nasal drops or antibiotics. You can use CPM tablets for symptomatic relief
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
