The problem you are facing is called rhinitis medicamentosa.
First it needs to be known why you had blocked nose into the first place. Second, the drops should be stopped. Third, alternate medications/ remedies for relief need to be prescribed.
Seek an ENT referral for evaluation management. This is best done by careful history and detailed clinical examination by ENT.
