Could be: But two weeks is a long time. Call your physician for an evaluation. It may be time for some stronger medication.

Need more info: Two weeks duration is possibly the length of time to for a cold to get in and out of your system. But if it continues and is getting worse, it may be a bronchitis or a pneumonia. I would see a dr. Asap.
