Re:
Sometimes it's hard to differentiate flu symptoms from cold symptoms, as flu symptoms include fever, upper-respiratory issues (runny nose, cough, sneezing) and general aches. So if your child doesn't look well to you, has had a fever for a few days, isn't drinking, is lethargic or has worsening symptoms, contact your pediatrician.
