Having cough and clogged ear. Had cold. Allergy? What could this be?
Patient: Hi,  I caught a cold, or I thought it was only a cold, exactly two weeks ago.  It knocked me out for two days then i started feeling better.  I have been continuing my normal activites and  exercise since last Saturday but my throat never stopped hurting although it is not as bad as it was the first few days.  I would compare it to allergies.  My concern in that I still have a cough and now I have had a clogged ear for two day?  What could this be?
