What Causes Throat Irritation, Nasal Congestion And Cough?

Okay so I m sick. Not sure how but my throat feels really uncomfortable when I drink water , or even talk . I guess you could say it s sore. My nose is stuffy also and my eyes are a bit watery sometimes. Winter time is near and I don t think a flew &I cough (I assume) is great that time. What do I do ? What do I have ? Any ideas ? I m 17 by the way
