Anon - You should contact your daughter's pediatrician's office for advice. Inflammation of the membranes in the nose and mucus buildup is typically an unpleasant but temporary condition. In some cases, however, there can be infections that need treatment with medication. Others just need to run their course. Children who deal with this type of condition on a frequent basis may benefit from surgery, allergy shots, or other therapy but this can only be determined on the basis of medical history and a physical exam.
Hope she is feeling better soon, and that you are too.
Take care,
Pat
