Assalaamu alaikum,
Mmm. (smile) Your posting is a bit brief! Did you mean something like this:
When I pray, my nose gets runny and stuffy when I go down into sajdah. I googled about my symptoms, and it seems like I might have vasomotor rhinitis. Is this possible?
(smile) I'm not 100% sure this is exactly the question asked, but I suspect it is something close to this. If you could clarify your question, it would help.
Anyway, it is a legitimate question, and if this is what you are suffering, I empathize. Rhinitis is no fun. And to have it happen every time you go into sujood must be a real nuisance.
This is possible. As it says on this site
http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/874171-overview: “ Changes in body posture from erect to supine can increase nasal airway resistance.”
For a simple overview of vasomotor rhinitis, you could check the following link:

Turbinate refers to a structure that is part of the inner nose. There are surgical procedures to reduce an enlarged turbinate if it chronically interferes with your breathing, and medication does not help. A simple explanation can be found here:

If the rhinitis is caused
only by going into sujood, then it seems to me that you might perhaps do your prayers standing and kneeling or even just standing, if necessary. In Islam, we are permitted to do unusual or even forbidden things, if it is
absolutely necessary in order to avoid a greater harm. Like eat pork if we are starving, or steal from our husbands if they won't support us or our children. And if the rhinitis can be controlled only by avoiding sujood, then it seems to me preferable to do this rather than to try medication or surgery (as there are always possible risks to any intervention).
However, I strongly urge you to consult a doctor and look into 1) whether this is really what you have, and 2) if yes, whether there is an underlying medical condition that is causing this problem, and which it may be important to treat (such as an autonomic dysfunction secondary to another disease).
Incidentally, I am
not a medical doctor, though I have degrees in a health profession. (smile) Please do a proper examination of this problem with the help of a doctor. If you don't feel satisfied with the care you get, try another doctor. Or another. He/she can help you figure things out and order appropriate tests. There are some excellent doctors in Turkey.
May Allah, the Compassionate, Help you find Paradise through your struggles with your problems.
