Feel Sick


Feel Sick

If you feel sick, listen to your body. You may just need to get more sleep, drink more fluids, and spend some time in the fresh air. Don't hesitate to see a doctor or get help if you are feeling sick often.

About Feel Sick

If you are feeling sick, there are a few things that you can do to feel better and reduce the time you spend feeling bad:

Listen to what your body is telling you. If you feel tired, take a nap or at least lie down and rest. If you’re hungry, eat something.

Get more sleep. When you’re sick, you need to sleep so that your body has time to recover.

Drink lots of fluids. Make sure you stay hydrated by drinking nourishing liquids like chicken soup, 100% fruit juice, and water. Stay away from dehydrating beverages like alcohol and soda.

Treat your symptoms. Make sure that any over-the-counter (OTC) medicine that you take will treat what you have. Read the small print on the back of the box to check what symptoms the medicine treats and that it is safe for you to use.

Know when to see a professional. If rest and taking care of yourself doesn’t cure you, you may need to see a doctor. Some reasons you may want to see a doctor are persistent fever or coughing, trouble keeping food down, chest pain, headaches or congestion that won’t go away, painful swallowing, or difficulty breathing.

If your illness is minor, it may just take time to get better. Rest, rest, rest!
