The flu, or influenza, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It affects the nose, throat, and sometimes the lungs, leading to symptoms such as fever, cough, and body aches.

The flu is primarily spread through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. It can also be contracted by touching surfaces contaminated with the virus and then touching the face.

Common symptoms include sudden onset of fever, chills, muscle aches, fatigue, headache, dry cough, sore throat, and runny or stuffy nose.

The flu is typically diagnosed based on symptoms and may be confirmed with a rapid influenza diagnostic test (RIDT) or other laboratory tests.

Antiviral medications, such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu), can reduce the severity and duration of symptoms if taken early. Supportive care, including rest, hydration, and over-the-counter medications, can help manage symptoms.

Yes, the flu can be prevented with an annual flu vaccine, which is recommended for everyone aged six months and older. Good hygiene practices, such as frequent handwashing and covering coughs, also help reduce the spread.

Individuals at higher risk include young children, elderly adults, pregnant women, and those with chronic health conditions like asthma, diabetes, or heart disease.

Flu symptoms typically last about one to two weeks, with severe symptoms usually resolving within a few days. However, fatigue and cough can persist longer.

You should see a doctor if you experience severe symptoms, difficulty breathing, chest pain, or if you are at high risk for complications. Early medical intervention can be crucial for high-risk individuals.

No, the flu and the common cold are caused by different viruses. The flu generally causes more severe symptoms and can lead to serious complications, whereas cold symptoms are milder and develop gradually.
