How are flu symptoms different from symptoms with colds?

0

Unlike symptoms of a common cold, flu symptoms usually come on suddenly. Whether seasonal flu or swine flu, it usually starts with the abrupt onset of temperature, headache, fatigue and body aches. Here’s a list of flu symptoms you might feel: • high temperature • severe aches and pains in the joints and muscles and around the eyes • generalised weakness • ill appearance with warm, flushed skin and red, watery eyes • headache • dry cough • sore throat and watery discharge from your nose. Seasonal influenza is not normally associated with gastrointestinal symptoms, like diarrhoea and vomiting, at least not in adults. However, these symptoms appear to be more common with swine flu.
