How To Treat Flu Like Symptoms?
I have been having flu like symptoms for the past 2 weeks on and off mostly on. And in the last two days have regained my strength and no longer have any aches however I have noticed I have to pinwheel type shapes in my vision of my right eye. They are translucent enough that they do not block anything they just cause a sort of kaleidoscope effect and are fairly small yet very obnoxious can you tell me if the sickness could be related to the eye?

Hi, thank you for posting.
To treat your symptoms you should eat foods that contain a lot of vitamins.
You should also drink a lot of fluids, in order to increase kidney diuresis, because in that way you will clean your body from toxic products of virus.
These precautions will help you recover.
You have a flu complications and this is the reason that you feel pinwheel shapes in your eye. This is called Catarrhal conjunctivitis.
You also need local antibiotic.
Contact your oculist.
Regards.
