hy, and most importantly, when it's time to seek medical attention," said Rick Covert, COO at First Choice Emergency Room.

While most flu cases are treated by drinking plenty of clear fluids and getting rest, there are some symptoms to watch for, especially in children, which might call for a trip to the emergency room:

  • For children: Severe vomiting, dehydration, fast or troubled breathing, difficulty waking, irritability, not wanting to be held, bluish or gray skin color, and symptoms that improve, but return with an increased fever or worsened cough.
  • For adults: Fast or troubled breathing, abdominal or chest pains, severe vomiting, dizziness, confusion, and symptoms that return after improvement.
