Patient's question:
The fever came down after repeated treatments, but now the cough has worsened for about four or five days. Previous treatment and its effectiveness: Received an antipyretic injection and took anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing medications, which lowered the fever. Desired assistance: I would like to ask if it could be influenza A?Doctor's answer:
It's possible to consider bronchitis, tonsillitis, or pharyngitis. The reason for not suppressing the inflammation may be causing the recurring issue. New H1N1 influenza is not the primary consideration, as its symptoms are similar to other flu symptoms, such as high fever, cough, fatigue, and loss of appetite. H1N1 influenza typically presents with sudden fever, cough, muscle pain, and fatigue, and some may also experience nausea, vomiting, dry cough, red eyes, headache, and runny nose. The most important factor is having a history of exposure to the disease, epidemiological history, and considering it if there are outbreaks and the aforementioned symptoms. It's essential to see a doctor promptly.
