Hi,

Viral flu may cause release of toxins/interleukin release lead to inflammation and cause nausea and vomiting. Mucosal edema and bronchospasm may lead to breathing difficulty. You may use water vapor inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days.

Use bronchodilators like Salbutamol or Budesonide every 6-8th hourly depending upon severity. Use expectorents or decongestant medication, use tablet Deriphylline twice a day for five days. Avoid cool drinks and freeze water avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Use cap Tamiflu twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
