[|Human|] I was looking at the symptoms for H1N1.  I have 7 out of 10.   I lack vomiting, fever, respitory problems. Ive felt the symptoms now for 5-6 days.  Wondering, how long one has to have these symptoms and certain symptoms for this to be considered dangerous and requiring medical intervention?   It is the 6th day and I am starting to feel marginally better.  Probably at 50%.   Please advise.  thanks
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor I have read the query and understand the concern, the symptoms of seasonal flu are very similar to swine flu and considering that now you are feeling better it is most probably seasonal flu you are suffering from so no need to worry about. Severe symptoms like difficulty in breathing, severe vomiting, bluish discoloration of lips or skin due to inadequate oxygen supply because of lung dysfunction, convulsive attacks need immediate consultation to the doctor to rule out swine flu by examination of nasopharyngeal swab irrespective of duration of symptoms. Have good sleep, Chat Doctor.  Hope this answers your query.
