so i got swine flu sunday and my throat is killing me. did anybody else who had swine flu have a terrible sore throat, or just a pretty bad one? Im wondering if i have strep and swine. any help is much appreciated
K honest answer: Swine flu has been known to contrict airways and make you have trouble breathing...if u can't breathe fully then go to a doctor immediately, as it goes downhill from there and can kill you.
Anyways, I had swine. Yeah your throat hurts and after the fever/body ache/chills/etc goes away you have a pretty bad cough for a couple weeks. It sucks, but its happened to everyone that I know that has had it.
But if you're having trouble breathing, I would say call a doctor. I had a pretty bad sore throat, but never trouble breathing.
I had swine and the sore throat got pretty bad but I wouldnt say its quite as painful of intense as with strep. remember swine flu is an upper respiratory infection. the worst part i would say was the headaches and overall body aches
