IV Treatment for Cold and Flu in Texas

Colds and the flu share some of the same feelings. But the flu often feels worse, can be more dangerous, starts faster, and lasts longer than most colds.

Our treatments focus on giving your body body fluids and putting back the important things it needs. We use an IV drip for cold specially made to help your immune function. It goes into your bloodstream, skipping your digestive system so your body can use it immediately.

Here are some of the usual ways you might feel when you have a cold or the flu:

• • Sore throat: A sore throat can be caused by a cold or the flu and can happen when your throat gets irritated from coughing. With the flu, a sore throat often starts as a scratchy feeling and gets worse.
  • Nasal congestion: When you have a cold or the flu, it can block the tubes in your nose, making you have a stuffy nose or a nose that runs.
  • Sneezing and coughing: Sneezing more than usual can be an early sign of a cold. But sneezing along with a cough that doesn’t bring up much stuff can be a sign of the flu. The influenza viruses can bother the nerves in your airways, causing these and other breathing problems.
  • Fatigue and weakness: When you have a cold or the flu, you might feel exhausted and have body aches. Feeling exhausted and weak are often some of the first signs of the flu, and these feelings tend to be stronger than with a common cold. This can even feel like jet lag.
  • Fever: A temperature higher than 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit is usually a sign of the flu, not just a cold. A fever might also come with sweating and chills.
  • Headache: A slight headache is something that often happens when you have a cold. But if you have a headache around or behind your eyes, it could be from the flu. You might need pain medication for this. Sometimes, you can also get muscle cramps.

Influenza viruses can also cause serious health problems, like pneumonia, which might mean you must go to the emergency room. But if your cold or flu feelings aren’t too bad, can getting an IV drip help? Yes, it could help you feel better without you having to leave your house and can offer effective relief.
