Been around someone with rsv. now i have symptons. should i go to doctor for meds. ?

RSV?: Rsv is a virus that is very common in young children. Unfortrunately, it tends to affect them much worse than adults. In adults it usually presents with a "flu-like" illness and resolves on its own. Should you be experiencing shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, high fevers, or a persistent dry cough - you may need to see your doctor right away or, if severe, go to the er.

Usually self limited: RSV is usually a self limited illness and nasal saline rinses, rest and hydration usually are helpful.
