Hi,
Welcome to HCM forum and thank you for the query.
The condition you are suffering from is called Seasonal Allergy with or without Common Cold.
During changing of seasons, there are pollens and different types of spores released in the nature that cause hypersensitivity (Allergy). Allergy is a life long recurrent condition.
Especially, At the beginning of winter, there is an outbreak of different kinds of viruses that cause Upper Respiratory Tract Infection - Common Cold. Usually it is self limited but causes various annoying problems that you mentioned. Usually 30% adult people suffer from Common Cold. This is more common in smoker, immunocompromised and allergy sensitive person.
There is no permanent solution to this problem.
Hope, you got your answers.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Probably you are having a basis of allergy. More than cold, it is the mould in the system, that causes this. Cleaning the air-conditioning system ducts may help.
A battery of allergic tests can be done to detect the cause - and de-sensitisation can be attempted. Could be costly and not very efficient.
But allergy does not cause fever! In a closed environment, the air is re-circulated by the air conditioners - if any one has any infection,others may get it - hence the frequency. If others are free and you are the only one, you must check for sugar and some forms of immunodeficiency...
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
