Do Flu Symptoms, Muscle Aches, and a Fever Go Together?
How is flu defined? How different is it from cold symptoms? Do flu symptoms muscle aches and fever go together?
Flu is more serious than a cold. Symptoms of a cold can be mainly physical, such as a stuffed up feeling, a cough, a sore throat, a discharge. Generally a cold won't knock your energy too much. You'll be able to cope, more or less, with every day life. The symptoms are inconvenient rather than debilitating.
With any type of flu, you'll have a fever and some form of body aches. It might be muscle aches. It might be bone aches. This will tend to knock your energy much more. You'll want to stay off work, go to bed, be cared for.
These are all really good ways to assist your body in trying to heal you. Doping yourself and then going to work is likely to make your flu much more serious. You might even end up in hospital.
A few days in bed at the start of flu may be much more convenient in the long run.
