Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms usually last about seven to 10 days, and the person usually recovers completely.
They can last until 2 to 4 weeks sometime.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
