it depends on the season that is one big clue to determining if its a cold or allergy. like all the symptoms. sneezing, coughing, runny nose, phlemy throat, and stuffed up nose. that happens to me when i get allergies each season. if it was a cold, you would get a lot of headaches and feel like sleeping all the time

Hi,
this can be very confusing. I am a frequent allergy sufferer. Usually when you have a cold, mucus from your throat and nose is yellow or thick. This is not the case with allergies. With allergies the discharge is clear and you usually don't cough unless you have post nasal drip.
Go to a doctor to be on the safe side especially if you develop a fever.
Good luck,
