However, cough can remain for longer than two weeks. If you have other health problems there might be complications. Please make an appointment at your doctor if this is the case.

You should also note that there are different types of flus: A, B and C. Type A and B are the most common types of flu and cause the well-known annual flu epidemics. Type C also causes influenza, however, its symptoms are much less severe.
