She seems to be suffering from allergic rhinitis which requires long term treatment with anti Histamine which she is already taking. Steroid nasal sprays are also beneficial and safe. Usually treatment needs to be taken for longer duration. Surgery may not be very beneficial
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
