How long does the flu lasts?

[Anonymous]

Started having the flu (sore throat when I woke up yesterday and last night my nose was clogged..) how long does it lasts?

That might just be a common cold. But it all still depends on your immune system and experience with that specific virus (which, I guess IS your immune system). Two days if you're strong and lucky. One week if you're not. My average is about three to four days of feeling like trash.

Okok thanks man!

Flu feels like you're going to die. It can take weeks and even months before you're fully recovered.

You have a cold, mate.

I'm sure it will pass in a few days.

Ok thanks bro I was worried!

Anywhere from 4-7 days, depending on the strain. Maybe longer if it’s stronger

Mine would last 1-7 days, but usually 5 days.

At a guess you don’t have full blown flu and just a bad cold. Flu puts you on your back and you know when you have it, going on the internet is not something you do lol.

Okok!

Usually a week, but the most recent one I had took me 3 weeks which is very unusual.
