Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Treatment of Flu is mainly supportive. He should have enough rest, drink enough water and herbs and take over the counter analgesics and decongestants.

In most cases, it takes a week for complete recovery from this illness.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
