INFLUENZA/FLU SYMPTOMS AND ITS NATURAL TREATMENT
Natural Treatment For Flu
Influenza, commonly known as flu, is a respiratory illness which is caused by a self-mutating virus. It is contagious and even spreads through sneezing, coughing or talking with an infected person.
Owing to the similarity of various symptoms, it is very easy to get confused and assume it to be common cold. But unlike a common cold, Influenza may also include fever, aches, chills, body pain, fatigue, and chest discomfort.
Common Flu Symptoms
Fever
Headache
Sore throat
Headache
Fatigue
Nausea
Diarrhoea
When someone infected with the Influenza virus sneeze, coughs or talks the virus may easily get transferred in the air. Upon inhaling these contaminants or coming in contact with the objects touched by an infected person you may easily get flu.
New strains of influenza keep developing as the virus is self-mutating in characteristic.
A previous exposure to any strain variety of this virus may better prepare you for any future infection as your body has already developed an immunological memory by creating antibodies.
There are three types of influenza viruses namely Influenza A, Influenza B, and Influenza C.
Influenza A and influenza B are responsible for debilitating respiratory issues occurring every winter season. While influenza C may just cause some mild symptoms that are easily manageable.
Normally, a person suffering from influenza recovers in a duration of one week while for children it may extend a little longer. But it can become more severe and lasts longer if treatment is not taken.
According to Australian Government department of health,
Influenza circulated at high levels throughout the 2017 season. For the seasonal period, 47% of patients presenting to sentinel GPs with ILI (Influenza like illness) tested positive for influenza. This was slightly higher than the 5 year historic range for the same period (range: 27% in 2013 to 45% in 2012).
