How can I tell if it’s allergies or a cold?

Is it ALLERGIES or a COLD? 🤧❄️🌸

ALLERGIES 🌷
✅ Itchy eyes, nose, throat
✅ Clear watery runny nose
✅ Lasts weeks–months
✅ Same time every year
✅ Gets better with antihistamines
✅ No fever

COLD 🦠
✅ Body aches & fatigue
✅ Yellow/green mucus after a few days
✅ Low-grade fever possible
✅ Gone in 7–10 days
✅ People around you are sick

ITCHY EYES OR NOSE = LIKELY ALLERGIES

Colds almost never itch. If your eyes are watering and you want to rub them nonstop → It's likely allergies

If you’ve been congested for more than 2 weeks every year… it’s time to see an allergist
