HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Yes, you should consider a second opinion. Even though the cold can sometimes last up to 2 to 3 weeks, this is not common and it would be best to be reassessed.
It is possible that cold would be confirmed but at least you would be re examined.
Allergies would cause coughing and sneezing but would not normally causes aches and pains.
I hope this helps
