Is It Necessary To Consult A Doctor For One Week Old Flu?
My husband and I are on day 8 of the flu. We are still very tired. Our ears are plugged and we have a lot of mucus ranging from clear, cloudy, yellow and sometimes blood tinged. We have bad coughs and sore throats and sweat a lot at night. Should we see a Doctor or wait it out. We are sooooo ready to be over with this.
Hi, It seems that you might be having some bacterial infection as well. Go for complete blood checking. You may require one course of antibiotic for 3-5 days. Take plenty ofwater. Take light diet. Take rest. Ok and take care.
