Question
Hello doctor, I had the flu 1-2 days later, I had a sore throat, a long cough, a lot of phlegm, because I took my medicine irregularly, so the cough with phlegm and stuffy nose lasted for a long time. I heard there is an outbreak of influenza A this time.... I don't have a fever or other symptoms besides stuffy nose and cough with lots of phlegm, is it possible that I have influenza A, or is it a common cold? Doctor please help me!

Hello, according to your symptoms, first think you have acute nasopharyngitis, if you are concerned about flu, go to the hospital to take a test for Influenza A, B , the cost is not high and you have a long-lasting cough, so you need to see a specialist to determine the cause and definitive treatment.
