Experiencing Sneezing And My Voice Has Gone. Did I Catch Flu Or Cold?

I was driving and something felt like it flew up my nose, then I just started sneezing, I kept sneezing for about 10 mins, I got home and took a nap and when I woke up, I was stuffy, woke up this morning and my voice is gone. Did I catch the flu or a cold?
