since influenza (assuming this is what he had) only lasts about a week with the worst symptoms the first few days she has exceeded this time. she should be examined for a secondary infection at this point.
how long should i wait before bringing my 11 yr old with flu symptoms to our family dr? it has been 8 days. initial symptoms were nausea high fever severe headache loss of appetite and fatigue. those lasted about 2 days now she is very tired little appetite sore belly/nausea and has a sore throat and cough.
