Common Flu Symptoms & Treatment Options

Influenza (flu) symptoms often come on suddenly and may include:

• Fever, or feeling feverish
• Chills and/or body aches
• Stuffy or runny nose
• Sore throat
• Fatigue
• Headaches
• Coughing
• Vomiting or diarrhea (this is more common in children than adults)

The flu is a viral infection that doesn’t necessarily have a cure; the virus must simply run its course, which may take a few days. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t receive treatment for bothersome flu symptoms. At Fast Track Urgent Care, we help flu patients by:

• Providing flu testing to rule out other illnesses, such as COVID-19 and the common cold
• Administering appropriate treatment, which may include an antiviral medication that can shorten the duration and severity of the flu when given shortly after symptom onset
• Helping prevent complications for high-risk patients, including older adults and immunocompromised individuals
• Prescribing medication (when appropriate) to help ease severe flu symptoms
