Are you taking any medications?

I'm using nose drops recently, but they don't treat rhinitis, only relieve symptoms.
In the first place, there is not any medicine that completely treats rhinitis, so we should be conscious of not being exposed to as much rhinitis-triggering factors as possible if we have rhinitis.

1. Use "the" when referring to something specific or mentioned previously (this is specifically referring to rhinitis symptoms).
2. It is possible to say "there isn't any medicine" but "there is no medicine" sounds better. "There is not any" sounds awkward (even if it's the longer version of "isn't any").
3. Use alternatives to avoid repetitions. Repetitions can make statements sound awkward.

I got it. That is correct! Avoiding triggers rather than specific medications is the best thing to do. How severe your rhinitis can be when it is triggered?

My rhinitis is not so severe that I cannot sleep without taking some rhinitis medicines taken orally, but I have to use nose drops at night to sleep smoothly.
Rhinitis often occurs at night. Many people who suffer from rhinitis should also think so.

1. It's okay to remove this to make this less wordy. You can also say "some medication" to make it even less wordy.

Yes. You got that absolutely right. Are there any lifestyle changes you've made to manage your rhinitis?

Yes. There're two changes I've made.
First, I'm trying to keep my room clean every day not to breathe in house dust. It might not be effective enough to manage my rhinitis, because I'm not allergic to house dust anymore. However, I think breathing in house dust wouldn't help my symptoms at least, so I'm not going to stop it.
Second, I'm trying to keep my body warm while sleeping to avoid symptoms that keep me awake.
I will keep these routines from now on but they are basic for people who suffer from rhinitis.

1. This needs rephrasing. You can also say "to avoid breathing in house dust" or "to prevent breathing in house dust"

I am glad to hear that. Many people with rhinitis find that environmental factors play a significant role.When was the last time you had a severe allergic attack, by the way?

I had it in last winter. Cold environment worsens my symptoms every year, so it is effective to keep my body as worm as possible.

自然な表現

1. There is no need for a preposition before [last + time expression] (e.g. I went there last Thursday; They had dinner last month).
2. Spelling mistake.

I understand. Keeping your body warm is very important, indeed. Do you take any vitamins or minerals? Would you like to try new medications?

No I don't. I think those supplements probably won't help with my rhinitis. That's because my rhinitis doesn't have any particular cause, and it's just something natural.
I'm not going to try new medications now. If my symptoms get more worse, I may be try some new medications.

自然な表現

No, I don't. I think those supplements probably won't help my rhinitis. That's because my rhinitis doesn't have any particular cause, and it's just something natural.
I'm not going to try new medications now. If my symptoms get worse, I may try some new medications.

1. Use a comma after "yes" or "no" if used at the start of a sentence.
2. It's okay to remove this. The meaning is still the same and it is less wordy.
3. Both "more" and "worse" are comparatives. Comparatives are not generally used together because it is redundant.
4. This is not needed for this construction.
