What Causes Body Aches, Vomiting Blood When On Influenza Flu Treatment?

Our 16 year old daughter became unwell last Wednesday morning took her to the doctor couple of day later and has influenza flu. She is on tamiflu tablets but still feels just awful and body still aches. She is now vomitting specks of blood. What else can we do. She is so fatigued.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM!

Really sorry to hear about the your daughters' illness.

Due to change in weather, viral infections have become quite common these days. Any viral infection takes atleast 6-9 days to be completely cured. So, am pretty sure she will be fine in these few days.

Also, viral infections are known to cause body pains. She should take pain killers like Diclofenac sodium. This will bring relief to her pain.

About her vomiting specks of blood, it is not normal. I'd strongly advice you to take her to your treating doctor and let him know about this at once.

Hope this information helps. Feel free to ask if you have any other doubt.

Wishing your daughter a speedy recovery.
Regards,
Dr. Sridhar Reddy
