  Influenza A (H1N1) is caused by infection with the Influenza A (H1N1) virus and is classified as an acute respiratory infectious disease. Patients may experience various symptoms including fever, cough, nasal congestion, and body aches, and may develop high fever. In severe cases, it can damage vital organs and even be life-threatening. Usually, within 1 to 4 days after infection, the virus triggers a significant inflammatory response in the body, manifesting as persistent high fever. Some patients may also experience flu-like symptoms such as headache, cough, and muscle pain. After initiating appropriate antiviral treatment under medical guidance, symptoms generally begin to gradually improve within 3 to 5 days.

  Since Influenza A (H1N1) can spread through the respiratory tract, it is important to maintain personal hygiene. Hands should be washed frequently with soap, especially after coughing or sneezing.
