You seem to be suffering from allergic rhinitis which requires long term treatment with anti Histamine medicines and steroid nasal sprays. If your symptoms are persistent and recurrent then allergy is the probable cause
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required. Betadine gargle are not helpful in this condition
