I am feeling a bit congested but nothing else. i become congested in the morning and then during the day i am fine and then at night i become congested again. i took a covid test and it was negative. do you think this is allergies and a regular cold?

Your description is suggestive of allergic rhinitis, so called allergy, triggered by indoor allergen, e.g., dust mite.

If you experience fever, muscle aches, it is more likely that you have the Flu or another respiratory infection. The common cold is often associated with mild sore throat and an allergic reaction is often associated with itchiness. Avoid smoke, common allergens such as dust,mold and pet dander. Allergy testing is recommended if you have no fever and rinse nasal passages with saline
