Something that might help me get better faster rather than just hide the symptoms?

It is very unsafe to self medicate – please consult a doctor.

Couple of non drug treatments that provide relief are as follows:

1] Irrigate the nose to loosen and remove mucus. this can be done by putting salt water solution in a Neti-pot or a regular tea pot and pouring this in the nose.

2] use a drug free nasal spray like Sinox nasal spray which will loosen and remove accumulated mucus. it will also act as a gentle disinfectant keeping the nose free from microorganisms.

Good luck.
