It is recommended to stay at home and rest if you are experiencing symptoms of the flu, such as a sore throat, dry cough, pinkish mucus, and feeling dizzy. If you have had a fever for more than 5 days, experience lung pain during coughing, or if all symptoms persist for 7 days, it is advised to see a doctor. Additionally, you can try using honey lozenges, a cough syrup like Ulone™, Tylenol™ Extra-Strength to relieve throat and head pain, and eating cold and non-irritating foods. Hang in there, in a few days it will be over!
