Are fever and cough symptoms of influenza A?

Influenza A, short for Influenza Type A, presents symptoms such as fever and cough. However, fever and cough are not necessarily caused by Influenza A.

Influenza A is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by the Influenza A virus. Its symptoms are varied and include high fever, cough, sore throat, muscle or joint pain, headache, chills, fatigue, and sometimes vomiting and diarrhea. Fever and cough are common symptoms of Influenza A; after infection with the Influenza A virus, patients often develop symptoms such as fever and cough. Although fever and cough can be caused by Influenza A, these symptoms can also be triggered by other illnesses, such as the common cold, bronchitis, and pneumonia. Besides fever and cough, attention should also be paid to other symptoms of Influenza A, such as general fatigue, muscle aches, and headache.

Once diagnosed with Influenza A, patients should take antiviral medications under a doctor's guidance, such as Oseltamivir Phosphate Capsules, Zanamivir Inhalation Powder, and Peramivir Injection. At the same time, patients should isolate themselves to avoid contact with others in order to reduce the risk of virus transmission. During treatment, adequate rest, increased fluid intake, and attention to personal hygiene are important to help the body recover.
