Most likely a cold - if so, antibiotics will NOT help. If it is a bacterial infection (not a cold) antibiotics will help. Boost your immune system and it will clear up faster.

If you have pain in your chest too it could be pneumonia or pleurisy [which is a complication of pneumonia]. this is accompanied with pain when breathing, and extreme pain when coughing. If you suspect you have pneumonia or pleurisy, you should contact your Doctor or local Gp [general practionEr] which will refer you to the hospital for a chest x-ray to check nothing is wrong. =)
It's most probably just a cold. if it doesn't go better within 5 days, or it goes worse suddenly, go to your doctor.

It could be a chest cold but I would check with the dr to be on the safe side.
