treatment:
Treatment is usually based on antiviral drugs or medications to reduce the severity of symptoms. It is also advised to rest, drink plenty of fluids, and eat vegetables and fruits to enhance the body's immunity so that it can resist the disease.
It should be mentioned that the high body temperature in the case of swine flu falls within the category of procedures that the body adopts to resist and get rid of the virus, so if children have exceeded six years, the high body temperature does not pose a threat to them as long as it does not exceed 38 and a half degrees, and medicines are not provided at This category of children is only if the temperature continues to rise and exceeds the specified percentage, while the matter is different for infants and children under the age of six years, because the high temperature may pose a greater danger to them.
