At each person at least time in a life the temperature raised. The ache in a body, headaches, ознобы – all is typical symptoms for a flu. For certain each of us heard about this illness, especially in a context of news about a bird flu, so widely advertised in our country. About a bird flu we will talk another time, and today we will consider more widespread version of a flu with which risks to face each of us.
 How it is possible to catch?
The flu – an air-drop infection also is transferred from the person to the person through inhaled air. A flu very much контагеозен, that is, at contact to the sick person you have very big risk to catch. Probably, that illness will be shown not at once, and after some days is a so-called incubatory period of illness when the virus has already got into an organism, but yet has not proved. During this period the person is already infectious for associates. From here a conclusion – If you were ill, it is necessary to think of associates and to remain at home. In our century of a pursuit of the capital when the life goes mad rates, people try not to take sick-lists and work while there are forces … and if to look at this problem from other foreshortening? You go in public transport where in rush hours you are surrounded with hundreds people, on work you communicate with colleagues and visitors – you subject health of all people set forth above to risk. Plus at the sick person sharply decreases working capacity. And at last, you risk to earn flu complications, most terrible of which – complications on heart (миокардиты, эндокардиты), on kidneys (a pyelonephritis, toxic нефропатия) and a pneumonia. How it is possible to save itself from unpleasant illness?  First of all – do not overcool, during it at the person immunity sharply decreases and it becomes more vulnerable for any infection.
In time sanify the centres of a chronic infection – a tonsillitis, rhinitises, a bronchitis, pyelonephritises – it besides beats all on immune system. If you know about similar problems in an organism in the autumn and run courses of supporting therapy under the control of the attending physician in the spring. Support the immunity иммуностимуляторами (Иммунал, Эхинацея, the Cat's claw, etc.), but it is not necessary to take a great interest in them – at excessive or too long reception you can achieve opposite effect, therefore it is necessary to consult with the doctor for correction of a dose and time of application of the given preparations. If someone near to you was ill, That it is possible to take more active measures of preventive maintenance – reception Арбидола (1 capsule a day) or Оциллококцинума (on 1 dose a day). Grease nasal cavity Оксолином. Put on a mask at contact to the patient. If the employee at you on work was ill – try to explain to it necessity to take the sick-list. And, certainly, – immunization, i.e. Inoculations. Inoculations from a flu: pro and contra Many of us heard about scandal concerning a poor-quality vaccine as a result of which introduction people have suffered. After that accident measures under the control over quality of a vaccine have sharply become tougher and the risk of repetition of similar incident at present is brought practically to naught. Some people are afraid to do inoculations because of possible complications. Certainly, it is not necessary to take root: During an aggravation of a chronic pathology, Within 3 weeks after illness or other inoculation, During pregnancy (but to pregnancy it is desirable to make all inoculations put on age to lower risk of disease during time вынашивания the child). Also with care it is necessary to concern inoculations to people who ever had allergic reactions to vaccine introduction. To the rests the inoculation will be of use for all only. What from itself the inoculation and how after it immunity is formed represents? The inoculation is a microdose of the virus, entered to you in an organism. Some people speak: «What for to me voluntary to infect itself?». It in a root incorrectly – with that quantity of a virus which is brought in an organism, the weakened organism of the elderly person with a bouquet of chronic diseases is capable to consult even. As a result in blood antibodies – cages which are capable to react quickly to repeated introduction of a virus in an organism are developed and to neutralise it, not having given illness to develop. These cages remain in blood within a year. In a year the inoculation is necessary for repeating, as the flu virus constantly changes and, accordingly, the vaccine structure varies. «I have inoculated last year and in 2 weeks was ill with a heavy flu» - frequent enough motivation at refusal of an inoculation. But it is necessary to consider, that immunity after an inoculation is formed not at once, and within 2 months and in 2 weeks the organism was yet ready to new attack of a virus. Therefore it is necessary to think in advance of an inoculation, instead of at the moment of epidemic – optimum term to take root in October – the beginning of November. After an inoculation in the evening and next morning it is recommended to drink антигистаминное (antiallergic) means – Кларитин, Супрастин or any another). How to understand, what at you not cold, nevertheless a flu? At a flu always a heat accompanied ознобами, an ache in a body, weakness. At a flu never happens a cold – it can join only for 3-4 day of illness. There is an intestinal form of a flu – the most actual this year when all aforesaid joins метеоризм, a nausea, vomiting (one – two times, it is no more), diarrheas, pains in a stomach is possible. If you all the same were ill how correctly to conduct yourselves? Certainly, it is necessary to address to the doctor. But if you have decided to begin treatment independently it is not necessary to accept antibiotics – at a virus infection they are absolutely senseless, since they operate only on a bacterium. To begin treatment it is necessary with противовирусных preparations – Арбидол, Ремантадин, Адапролин, Амантадин, Эреспал (at cough, a cold), Оциллококцинум. To accept the means promoting decrease of temperature – Колдракс, Терафлю, Aspirin, Эффералган – follows only in those cases if the temperature exceeds a mark of 38.0 degrees (in this case temperature is our immunity, the organism struggles with an infection and it is not necessary to stir to it). If for the third day of treatment the temperature remains, the meeting with the doctor is inevitable, delay can pour out in serious complications. Certainly, I wish all health and not to face such trouble as a flu, but if you will be overtaken by this problem try to concern responsibly itself and associates. Remember that with each exhalation of the sick person in air thousand the smallest particles of a virus with which suspecting people are generously presented nothing are pulled out. Alla GRIGORIEV
