Overlapping symptoms: There are overlapping symptoms between the common viral cold, sinus infections and allergic rhinitis (allergies) for an easy to use chart, go to my blog and read. http://www.familyallergyasthmacare.com/2013/02/is-it-a-cold-sinus-or-allergies/ In a nutshell, itching (nose, eyes, palate) makes it more likely to be an allergy. Fever makes it most likely to be an infection.
