You are now.: These are typical allergy symptoms. Try an antihistamine such as Claritin, (loratadine) Zyrtec or Allegra on a daily basis.

Sounds like Allergy: All of the symptoms sound exactly like allergic rhinitis. Initial therapy begins with over the counter antihistamines (Zyrtec (cetirizine) or Allegra), especially if you don't know what might be causing the inflammation and therefore what to avoid. Next step = Allergist evaluation for allergy skin testing.

Allergy: Although you may not be able to identify the allergen, this certainly sounds like an allergy. There are three ways to deal with allergies: avoidance (if the allergen is known), pharmacotherapy (over the counter, prescription, naturopathic or herbal), or immunotherapy (allergy shots or drops under the tongue). Consider a formal allergy evaluation.

Common cold: If you have never had seasonal allergies, then it's most likely a Rhinovirus. If routine OTC meds for this are unsuccessful, see your doctor.
