Difference between a cold and having allergies?

AKIRA · 09-20-2007, 11:37 AM

Ok my throat was course (sp?) at the beginning of the week, which then turned into a runny nose with occasional sneezes. I dont feel "weak" and I know there was pollen all over my car at the beginning of the week, so I dont know if I have a cold or allergies.

I assume its allergies considering I have riding around on a motorcycle with no helmet, having all this air shoved into my nasal passages. I also wash my hands a lot and avoid touching public objects...

I think you have some sort of fatigue when you have a cold, yes? Really, I have no clue.

Clear snot or colored snot? No other cold symptoms?

Yes, fatigue... fever. Take some allergy medicine. If it goes away, then you know it is not a cold.
