Colds
A cold is easily detected by a lack of activity and ears held back against the head. The nose may appear swollen because the fur is ruffled from wiping a nasal discharge. In advanced stages, the hamster gets thin, the fur loses its luster, and sniffling and sneezing can be heard. Disinfect the cage, and all watering and feeding dishes. Provide fresh, dry bedding, and keep the cage free from drafts. Offer plenty of wholesome foods supplemented with cod-liver oil. As a preventive measure, do not handle your hamster while you have a cold.

Bring it to a vet. I hope that it's not serious. I'm in 5th.

take it to the vet as soon as you can. it may just be allergies, or it could be a tumor, or it could be cancerous. do it quick.
