How is flu symptom treated?

The respiratory tract was isolated for 1 week or until the main symptoms disappeared. It's better to stay in bed, drink more water, give digestible liquid or semi liquid diet, keep the nasopharynx and oral cavity clean, supplement vitamin C and vitamin B1 to prevent complications.

Fever and headache should be treated symptomatically; However, antipyretic drugs containing aspirin should not be used, especially in patients under 16 years old, because it may be related to Reye syndrome. Patients with high fever, loss of appetite and vomiting should be given intravenous rehydration. The speed of rehydration should be considered according to the patient's physical condition, the nature of the drug and the total amount of rehydration. Generally, adults have about 40-80 drops per minute. If the dripping speed is too fast, it will not only reduce the effect of the drug (it will be discharged from the urine quickly), but also cause excessive infusion in a short period of time, which will cause a sharp increase in the blood volume in the blood circulation of the human body, especially for people with heart disease, generally 20-40 drops / minute is appropriate. At the same time, it is necessary to observe whether there are chest tightness, shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat and other symptoms at any time. Too fast liquid filling speed will aggravate the burden of the heart, cause heart failure, pulmonary edema and other serious symptoms.

Vaccination should be delayed for patients with fever, and pregnant women should usually be vaccinated under the guidance of doctors. The new vaccine is only injected once a year, and antibodies can be produced in 10-15 days. Generally, it will not suffer from influenza within a year.
