🤧 Cold vs. Flu — How to Tell the Difference
Not sure whether you’re dealing with a cold or the flu?
While they share some symptoms, there are key differences to watch for.
✔ Flu symptoms usually come on suddenly and can include fever, body aches, chills, fatigue, and headache
✔ Cold symptoms tend to develop slowly and often include a runny or stuffy nose, sore throat, sneezing, and mild cough
✔ Rest, fluids, and proper care are important for both — but the flu may require additional treatment or medical attention.
