How Can Throat Pain And Severe Cough Be Managed?

I have symptoms of the flu, but I am not running a fever. My throat is extremely painful, my nasal passages hurt, I have a painful cough. I have soreness all over. I saw an NP on Friday and she ruled out pneumonia. My symptoms have worsened since I saw her. Ihad the flu shot in Oct. 2017. Thanks for any advice you can give. Mary Lovvorn

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

After flu shot when you developed flu?

It is common to develop flu symptoms after flu shot, but it took flu shot and this one is fresh one means it may due to viral fever.

Take rest, drink plenty of fluids, avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks.

Use tablet Paracetamol. If symptoms not improved you may need to consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care.
