Understanding Flu Season

Flu season generally starts in the fall and peaks during the winter. It's the time when the flu virus is most active and can spread rapidly. Flu symptoms can be quite similar to the common cold, but they're usually more severe and come on faster. They often include body aches, coughing, a sore throat, and yes, you guessed it, fever.

The Significance of Fever

Fever is your body's way of saying, "Hey, I'm fighting off something here!"

It's an important symptom because it signals that your body is actively trying to beat an infection, like the flu. Monitoring your body temperature, therefore, becomes a crucial step in managing your health, especially during flu season.
