Dr. Jessica Lewis, MD | WHSV – Managing the Flu & and Where to Seek Care

Dr. Jessica Lewis, MD, of Augusta Health, was featured on WHSV to discuss when and where to seek treatment for the flu. 

Most of the time, flu can be managed at home with rest, hydration, and over-the-counter pain medication. 

If you have moderate symptoms, you may want to visit urgent care for antiviral treatment or to learn how to best manage your symptoms.

Severe dehydration, sudden worsening of symptoms, chest pain, and shortness of breath are all reasons to go to the Emergency Department.
