This nasty flu fever loves to stay rent-free in your body for about 3 to 5 days. It makes you feel like you ran a marathon while sleeping! Just drink your fluids and give it some time to pack its bags.
Beta, the high fever generally remains for three or four days, and then it starts going down. Keep drinking warm water, take full rest, and eat light porridge. Take care of yourself, the body needs time to recover.
I totally get it, the body ache and continuous fever with Influenza B are absolutely draining. For my family, the high fever lasted a solid 4 days before we felt any relief. Please make sure you are getting enough sleep and staying hydrated.
Usually, it should come down in 5 days, but please be very careful. My fever didn't subside and turned into a chest infection because I delayed going to the hospital. If the fever is high or you feel breathless, see a doctor immediately.
It is so exhausting when the fever refuses to break even after 3 days. I felt so helpless and anxious when I had it last month because the weakness was overwhelming. It does get better by day 5, so please hang in there.

When I had flu last year, the fever lasted for 4 days, but the weakness stayed for two weeks. Especially for those of us with blood pressure or other health issues, we must monitor our vitals daily and consult our doctor for the right care.
The fever typically runs its course in 3 to 5 days. During this time, my focus is always on warm, easily digestible foods like vegetable soups and mung dal khichdi. Don't force heavy meals, let the body focus on fighting the virus.
