What Are The Possible Treatments For Symptoms Of Flu ?
I have had cold and flu-like sypmtoms for the past week that are not getting better, very sore throat, headache, and stuffy nose. The other day I also woke up with very swollen taste buds and a painful tongue. It's been about 3 days since that, and the tastebuds are still very swollen and painful and my other sypmtoms are not getting better either.
