    Idk, if it gets too bad you should take something. But suppressing a flu will not help you in any way, it is your body’s defence mechanism. You’ll only be prolonging the suffering just to have some temporary relief. Instead of popping pills and keeping going, we should be listening to our bodies and taking some rest. That being said, using pain killers etc to get good sleep is a good use, because getting proper rest is the only way to heal quickly of illness.
