Had Cold, Fatigue, Runny Nose, Sore Throat, Cough. Will I Be Okay?

I had a cold starting about Feb 26th ( fatigue , runny nose , sore throat , cough) All the symptoms of the cold have went away except a lingering sore throat. My throat really hurts when I wake up, and the pain goes down as the day goes by. It is now March 14th and it s still here, but very minor. I am scheduling an appointment with a doctor, but would like to know any thoughts?

ENT Specialist,  's  Response
thanks for your query.
History seems that you might have allergic rhinopharyngitis.
for that you need to continue one topical steroidal nasal spray like mometasone nasal spray twice a day for a month.
Avoid allergens Like dust, fumes, pollution, smoking or alcohol etc.
take antiseptic gargles regularly.
Avoid cold and junk foods.
Thanks, take care.
