During the flu season, many people are hit by cold viruses, and influenza B is even more painful. Influenza B is different from the common cold in that its symptoms are more severe, and patients often feel body aches, high fever, fatigue, etc. So, how should we deal with influenza B? This article will introduce you to the relevant knowledge of influenza B and remind you that these two things should not be delayed after infection.
Influenza B, also known as influenza B virus infection, is an acute respiratory infection caused by influenza B virus. There are two types of influenza B viruses: B Victoria and B Yamagata. Influenza B viruses are less transmissible than influenza A viruses but are still highly contagious. Influenza B is mainly transmitted by patients and infected people, and the virus is transmitted by droplets, or through direct or indirect contact with items contaminated with the virus.
Symptoms of influenza B usually appear within 1-4 days of infection and include the following:
1.Fever: Patients with influenza B usually have a higher temperature, up to 38-40 degrees Celsius, and last for 3-4 days.
2.Body aches: People with influenza B tend to experience body aches, especially severe muscle and joint pain.
3.Fatigue: After being infected with influenza B, patients will experience symptoms such as fatigue and lack of energy.
4.Sore throat: People with influenza B may have symptoms such as sore throat and cough.
5.Headache: Some patients may experience symptoms such as headache and nausea.
6.Chills: After influenza B infection, people may experience symptoms such as chills and intolerance to cold.
So, what are the things that can't be put off after contracting influenza B?
1.Seek medical attention: After getting infected with influenza B, some people may choose to put it off and wait for it to heal themselves. However, this approach is not advisable. Influenza B is highly contagious and can lead to exacerbations and even life-threatening illness if not sought medical attention promptly. In addition, delays** can lead to complications such as pneumonia, myocarditis, etc. Therefore, if you are infected with influenza B, you should seek medical attention promptly and follow your doctor's advice**.
2.Isolate and rest: After influenza B, people should isolate at home and avoid close contact with others. This is because influenza B is highly contagious, and patients spread the virus to those around them during the onset of the disease. During home isolation, patients should maintain good rest and avoid overexertion to facilitate physical recovery.
In addition to the above two points, after being infected with influenza B, you should also pay attention to the following points:
1.Drink plenty of fluids: People with influenza B should drink plenty of fluids to relieve symptoms such as sore throat and fever.
2.Maintain indoor ventilation: Ventilation in the room can help reduce virus concentrations and reduce symptoms.
3.Pay attention to diet: Patients should keep a light diet, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid spicy, greasy and other foods.
4.Follow-up examination: Patients with influenza B should have follow-up examinations on time to ensure that their condition is stable after their condition improves.
In short, after being infected with influenza B, patients should pay close attention to it, seek medical attention in time, and follow the doctor's best advice. At the same time, maintain good living habits and strengthen physical exercise to improve immunity and prevent influenza B**. This flu season, let's work together to fight the virus and protect our health!
