I'm not a doctor and don't play one on TV (or Pelican). That said -
It's hard to tell exactly what your complaint is - your head is all stopped up? ("no buggers in days") If that's the problem, then there are over the counter remedies to help with that - salt water nasal flush, as you mentioned. Perhaps a decongestant such as Sudafed. Tylenol and Theraflu make a "sinus" formula, there are many others. There are also some nasal sprays that can be used to clear you up (Afrin, for example).
If you're feeling asphyxiated, you may be feeling some asthma, as others have suggested. There ARE (or at least, used to be) OTC remedies for this as well, such as Primatine Mist (Google it - tons of info out there).
If you're willing to spend some money on OTC meds, you can go to any pharmacy and ask the pharmacist to advise you about what would be best for your symptoms.
Hope you feel better!
