How long do your muscles feel stiff and hurt when you have the flu? i cant stand it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A virus can take a while to clear. Best to just make sure that you hydrate and rest and take anti-inflammatories if you can like Advil, Alleve, Motrin. Take after food. Try stretching and some movement.

Hi, i've had a soar throat for 3 days now, my ears hurt also, muscles too, i know the flu is going around, what's the best i can do to get better fast?
Yesterday I woke up with diarrhoea and painful stomach cramps. Throughout the day, I developed muscle aches all over (flu-like) and went quite dizzy. Could it be the norovirus? My symptoms have improved today (no longer achey or dizzy).
