Sounds like allergies!. My 13 year old had the same problem!. I took him to the doctor to make sure it wasn't an infection!. We had tried mucinex d, claritan d, saline sprays, nothing was working!. Doctor said it was allergies!. She prescribed vazotan and it has been working quite well!. We also cleaned and dusted his room really well from top to bottom as well as the house and changed the air conditioning filters!. He's so much better now!. If you go to the doctor and get some med to clear you up, after you start to clear up, get one of those nasal saline bottles from neilmed (walmart, walgreens, etc!.) to help keep your nose clear and free of allergens!. It really helps!. There are some videos on youtube that demonstrate how to use them if you are nervous about it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well number one if you havent taken medicine then the cold will still linger for even months !.!.!.The symptoms could get better and then anything could just onset it and you could be sick all over again !.!.!.Your body is constantly trying to fight this which could make you weaker and your immune system weaker so your best bet would be to go to the dr!. and get medicine but if you cant try your best to take medicine (even though it sucks) and to really take care of yourself the next few weeks (getting lots of rest)Www@Answer-Health@Com

this time of year it is probably caused by allergies!. even if you have never had allergies, they can come on any time!. i never had them up until a couple years ago!. i would get sinus infections all spring long, but it turns out it was caused by allergies!. nasal sprays and cough drops help!. also, when i've got a cold i drink green tea with honey!.!.!.it always helps!. green tea is very good for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
