Flu. Cold. Sinuses.: All of the above symptoms accompany the common cold or influenza. While it could be other things, if the symptoms don't start to improve with a couple of days on their own, u should go see your md. If things keep getting worse and worse, then go see md.

Flu season: All of the symptoms you describe are consistent with viral infections at this time of year. If this continues past one week, or temperature rises, an md visit is is advisable.
