Rather than do this, get a Neti Pot.
It's really easy to do, it won't burn (because they tell you the proper salt:water ratio), and even if you get it "wrong", the extra water goes into your mouth, not down your throat or windpipe.
Don't snort water; it can get too deep into your sinuses, fester, and cause worse infections. Use the Neti Pot, then forcefully exhale through your nose to air-dry it.
