Decongestant. The natural remedies are to maintain health. When you have a cold, that is an infection. Your lungs are producing the mucus to protect your body from the germ.
Having a runny nose is not the problem, it's your body's natural solution.
You need to take care of your body, so it can destroy the harmful things on its own, without needing medicine. Prevention is the best cure - but for now, I recommend hot (strong) lemonade, rest, and see a doctor if it doesn't get better.

Sudafed is a good choice. If you want to tackle it hard and fast, add an antihistamine like Clariton. You may want to try Guaifenesin ( gwye-FEN-e-sin). The best known brand is Musinex.
Nose spray is good too however, DO NOT USE AFRIN for more then 3 days in a row. Another good nose spray you CAN use long term is NasalCrom or the generic form of it.
Good luck

Any nasal spray like Afrin works wonders but you have to be sure not to over-use or it will worsen the condition. Over than that all I know of is medicine like Sudafed, which I have never found to work all that well. I have the same problem. I wish you luck!

Have you tried rubbing Blistex medicated lip ointment under and around the bottom of your nose. Breath easier and heal the soreness from wiping.

Sudafed for for longer term relief, and Afrin nose spray for immediate relief.

Apply chestrub to the soles of your feet when you hop into bed. In the morning you will feel much better.
