With this disease, it is important not to self-medicate, as this can only cause harm.
When symptoms appear, it is necessary to make a clear diagnosis, not to confuse the disease with ARVI, and also to take into account the characteristics of the body.
This is why you should seek help in a timely manner to prevent complications.
It is important to remember that flu can lead to serious problems, which in extreme cases can be fatal.
This statement was made by Dr. Marina Konstantinova, writes URA.RU.
The specialist added that the main causes include severe respiratory failure with respiratory distress syndrome, and it could also be a generalized viral infection or the addition of a bacterial infection.
In addition, chronic illnesses may worsen.
The virus can also cause a heart attack.
The attack may not occur immediately, but a couple of weeks after the flu, if the patient did not stay in bed.
