The common signs of cold are congestion, sore throat and sneezing while coughing headaches and pain in the chest are common to both flu and cold.

With flu, you will in all likelihood run high temperature for days, and this will be accompanied with body ache, weakness and fatigue.

How Does It Spread?

The flu is highly contagious and spreads from one person to another usually through respiratory secretions; it is generally dominant in areas where there are a large number of people like daycare centres, classrooms, hostels etc.

When you inhale air droplets that have the flu virus or when one comes in contact with respiratory secretions like sharing a drink or a cigarette, or you are in contact with things touched by an infected person you catch the flu. When you touch something that has the virus and later on rub your face or touch your face, the virus gets transferred, that is the reason behind advocating frequent hand wash regimen.

It takes about 1 to 4 days for the symptoms of flu to develop and start showing
