allergies?
17/f
Two days ago I had a sore throat and I thought that maybe I was getting a cold. The following day, I woke up and I was sneezing had a runny nose, and felt like my head was in a cloud. I am not coughing at all, but my ears hurt and my head hurts too. I've never had allergies before, but when I looked up my symptoms, it seemed to match up with the symptoms of hayfever. Do I have allergies? If so, should I go see a doctor? I took Zyrtec last night but it didn't help whatsoever. I feel terrible :-\ Help!

Hayfever can cause all that (your head is likely hurting from the sinus problems the allergy can lead to). If it doesn't pass after a few days go see an allergist and they should be able to help you devise some mitigation strategies for the problem.
Until then, take two Tylenol for the headache, but not more than once every six hours.

A doctor is going to be more informative than anyone on this site, even if an actual doctor answers you on here. It could be allergies, or it could be a cold, or hell it could be neither of those. That's why you should see someone in person.

i'm not a doctor, but it sounds like allergies to me or a upper resppitory infection. Your allergies are probably causing "drainage" so thats why your ears are probably hurting, and the sore throat as well. You can also run a fever. Just go to the doctor if it doesn't get better with in a few days. Or try some different "over the counter" meds. Like Benadry. Hope you feel better! -Christy
