Sore throat, persistent cough is a sign of influenza A?

This is an automatically translated article.

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.

Hello doctor. I want to ask the doctor, we just got married and had sex without using any protection, and after a while I wanted to take my wife to get the HPV vaccine for cervical cancer, and I took my wife to do a pregnancy test and there was no sign of anything, and I decided to take my wife to get the HPV vaccine for cervical cancer, and after 1 month of the injection, my wife had a late period, and I asked the doctor at the injection site and the doctor said it might be because the injection was messed up, and continued to get the flu vaccine before getting pregnant, and a few days later I tested my wife and there were 2 lines, and I took my wife for an ultrasound, the doctor said it was 4 weeks and 4 days, I was so worried, I couldn't eat or sleep since that day, my wife got the first shot, doctor, can you tell me if the two vaccines for cervical cancer and flu affect the fetus, I hope the doctor will let me know and what I should do What is it, doctor, please tell me honestly, thank you!

Bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy is okay?

My period is about 15 days late. I tested with a test stick and it showed two faint lines. But then I had a lot of brown bleeding.
