What Is Influenza A?
6. Complications
Although it is a very common disease and usually only mild, you should still never be complacent when somebody has the flu. This is especially the case in people that are vulnerable to diseases. The condition can go on to result in complications, including ear infections, and asthma problems.
The infection can also go on to cause heart problems which could potentially result in permanent damage. Bronchitis is another potential complication which can make it much harder than usual for the patient to breathe. Another potential complication is pneumonia, which is a dangerous disease that will be fatal in some cases.
