Allergy: I do not believe you have had a cold for three years. Typically, a viral infection causing a "cold" lasts about 7-10 days. The persistence of a runny nose, which i presume is your major symptom, is consistent with allergic rhinitis (allergy of the nasal mucosa). The fact that it is all year round is a perennial allergy to dust and or molds. See an allergist.
