I've been feeling pretty rough with a cold and flu, plus my nose won't stop running, and swallowing is really hard. I also have hay fever, so I'm kinda worried if that's making everything worse. Could this be something more than just a cold? What should I do to feel better?

If you've already taken antiflu antibiotics and your fever persists, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment. The flu typically lasts from a few days to two weeks,
