Recognizing Your Flu Symptoms
Sharing details about your symptoms helps our physicians determine the most effective course of flu treatment. Consider the following questions:
Are you experiencing fever or chills?
A persistent fever or repeated chills may indicate a more significant influenza infection requiring medical attention.
Do you feel unusually tired or achy?
Extreme fatigue and widespread muscle aches are common with the flu but may also signal a more serious illness.
Do you have coughing, congestion, or a sore throat?
Respiratory symptoms help our team evaluate the severity of your condition and determine the best treatment plan.
Have you experienced nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea?
These symptoms can increase the risk of dehydration and may require additional supportive care, especially in children and older adults.

ER vs. Urgent Care: The Right Choice for Flu
While mild flu symptoms may improve with rest and hydration, severe symptoms often require a higher level of medical attention. When symptoms worsen or complications develop, an ER for flu is often the safest choice.
At Neighbors Emergency Center in Pasadena, we provide rapid influenza testing, comprehensive lab services, and immediate access to experienced emergency physicians 24/7. Our team can quickly diagnose the cause of your symptoms and begin treatment without delay.
Unlike many urgent care facilities, we offer IV fluids, medications, and advanced care for dehydration, breathing difficulties, and other flu-related complications. This allows patients to receive fast, comprehensive treatment in one convenient location.
