Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
The recovery time for influenza B symptoms in children varies depending on individual differences and the severity of the illness. Generally, the course of type B influenza lasts about one week, but the exact duration may differ based on the child's constitution and immune system. If the child's condition is mild and their physical health is good, recovery may occur within approximately one week. However, if the illness is more severe or the child is physically weak, the recovery period may extend to about two weeks.
