Is A Doctor Consultation Advisable For Sweating, Dizziness And Vomiting?
Hello, Based on your description, it is likely the flu. The common cold would not present with such severe symptoms. Though some persons with flu can manage at home, if it is severe, it is best to see a doctor for assessment. In his case, with worsening symptoms, this would be advisable. It is very likely that with appropriate care, he would be fine. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Michelle Gibson James
