With the flu, fever can typically last for 3 to 7 days. I track my temperature with a smart thermometer and my fitness app. If it goes beyond 5 days or if it's very high and not responding to medication, I'd definitely recommend seeing a doctor. Stay hydrated and rest up!
Oh, flu fever can be so nasty! I had it last winter, and my fever lasted for about 4-5 days, peaking around day 2-3. After that, it slowly came down, but I still felt weak for another few days. Just keep taking your meds, drink lots of fluids, and don't push yourself. If it's too high or lasts longer, definitely see a doctor.
Beta, with flu, fever usually stays for 3-5 days. Drink warm water with ginger and tulsi, it gives some comfort. Take a bath with lukewarm water to bring down the temperature. But if the fever is very high, like 103 or more, or if it doesn't go away after 5-6 days, then you must go to the doctor, don't delay.
Flu fever always makes me so worried! I'm constantly checking my temperature. It usually lasts between 3 to 7 days. If it's staying very high or you're having trouble breathing, don't wait. See a doctor right away. I always get nervous if it lasts more than 3 days, even if it's common.
