If You Have The Flu ...
If you couldn't quite manage to prevent the flu bug, here's are some steps to consider:
- Ibuprofen or acetaminopen can help with a fever and other aches and pains. Acetaminopen (Tylenol) does not upset the stomach like ibuprofen can.
- Do not take antibiotics. They kill bacteria, but not the viruses that cause a cold or flu.
- Do not smoke. This will only make it worse.
- Use cough drops and gargle with warm salt water for a sore throat.
- Keep a humidifier in your bedroom and take hot showers to clear a stuffed up nose.
- For a red and raw nose, rub ointment on and around the area.
- Unusually severe cold symptoms.
- High fever.
- Ear pain.
- A cough that gets worse as other cold symptoms improve.
- A flare-up of asthma or any other chronic lung problem.
