Prob cold, maybe flu: These are typical common cold symptoms. Without any treatment, it should last a week. With maximum effort, only 7 days. Joking aside, if you get higher fever and/or headache or muscle aches, see a doctor to be checked and possibly treated for influenza. Strep doesn't cause nasal congestion or cough.
