Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination indicated a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. Could you please tell me what the main transmission routes of influenza are?Doctor's answer:
The spread of the flu is primarily through airborne droplets. When flu patients breathe, they release flu viruses into the air. Others who inhale these droplets can become infected, especially when coughing or sneezing with phlegm. Therefore, it's important to keep windows open for ventilation, avoid crowded places, and wear masks when going out. If you have symptoms like fever or cough, seek medical attention immediately. Eating more fruits and vegetables can help boost your immunity.
