Whats the difference between a cold/flu and swine flu?

Do I Have The Swine Flu ..? :(?

  • The Only Symptoms I Have Are Sore Throat & A Runny Nose But Its Not So bad . I was Wondering If I Had The Swine & Whats The Difference Between The Swine Flu & The Regular Flu .? Thanks In Advance :)

  • Answer:

    If you've only had a sore throat and runny nose it'slikely to just be a normal cold... Those symptoms come with practically every illness so I wouldn't jump to the assumption of swine - if you get worse, like a fever or being sick or aching or anything then call NHS direct. Get well soon x

My friends have had it and they said, your whole body aches and you cough like crazy, sore throat and a terrible cold, and stuff like this... Your case of the cold doesn't seem as violent. It's pretty awesome if you don't get swine flu when it hits your school/work. in one class we had 9/26 people. No homework XD!!!

Instead of filling up yahoo answers with a bunch of junk like this which there are many answers like this, instead of asking this question, right across "answer" there is a "Search for questions" search difference between swine flu and regular flu or omething and press search.

There aren't significant differences in the symptoms, however swine flu can be more severe and include vomiting and diarreah and fever is not always present. I am sick right now and i though maybe i got it too. It is no worse than the regular flu for most people but if symptoms persist there is an anti-viral medicine (tamiflu) that will work on it. Go see a doctor if you are concerned.

You're probably just being paranoid. The media blew the whole swine flu thing WAY out of proportion to scare the public and get ratings. It's not really that big of a "thing." If you experience more symptoms, you could always see a doctor.

Don't worry, the common cold is said to be more dangerous than the swine flu.

No, i had the swine flu and a temperature of 103. It sounds like you just have a cold.

I think it's forbidden by law for us laymen to give medical answers or diagnoses. So please consult a doctor.
