Does throat pain, fever and breathlessness indicate sign of swine flu?
Patient: sir i am a 37 year old female ,i have asthmatic problem for past 10 years, past three days i have throat pain and respiratory problem,i cant breathe freely. from yesterday night it has increased and i had severe head ache. from morning i feel feverish and body ach too. is this seem to be a symptom for swin flu please answer me immediately becos i have a 10 year old son. Doctor: Hi thanks for asking question.These symptoms can be because of any viral infection especially any influenza flu.Do your CBC examination.Mostly it will reveal lymphocytosis if viral infection.It may be swine flu also.For it you have to contact doctor and your swab can be send for confirmation of it.Until that if strong doubt then temi flu can be taken.Drink more water and eat green leafy vegetables with more fruits.If severe bronchoconstriction present then steroid can be taken for 5 days to relieve bronchial edeama and congestion.Thanks.
