Dr. Dang Thi Mai Khue, Tam Anh General Hospital answered:
How quickly a person recovers from influenza A depends largely on how they are treated and cared for. When they have influenza A, they need to rest so that their body can recover more quickly.
When you have influenza A, you need to avoid spreading your symptoms to others, especially in the first 24 hours of having the flu, by ensuring personal hygiene.
Patients can use over-the-counter pain relievers and fever reducers such as paracetamol. In addition, they can use decongestants and throat lozenges.
Drinking plenty of water is key to helping patients overcome influenza A quickly.
In addition, it is necessary to supplement a scientific nutritional regimen with lots of fresh fruits, vegetables and protein-rich foods to fight symptoms of fatigue, lethargy, muscle weakness...
In particular, it is necessary to take the patient to the doctor when there are unusual symptoms such as coughing up blood, suffocation, feeling confused, temporarily losing consciousness...
