Thanks for posting you query to health care magic.
If it is a viral flu then it will be recover spontaneously after completion of virus life sapan .but we should not forgate to find out bacterial cause also .
So I suggest you some investigation that will help in making diagnosis.
1.Blood culture and sensitivity .
2.X ray chest to find level of lung inflammation.
3.Complete blood count to detect level of defence cells of body and its correlation with infection.
presently you should take good nutritious dite , drink plenty of water and take rest .review me after report to suggest you further managment .
Hope you would be satisfied with my answer . Feel free to communicate if any query .
