How Do You Treat Colds or Flu?
Mild cold or flu symptoms can often be treated at home with adequate rest, hydration, and over-the-counter medicines. If you are experiencing persistent high fever, shortness of breath, chest pain, or symptoms that last longer than ten days, we recommend seeking medical attention as soon as possible.
Cold and flu care at Jackson Medical Associates starts with a thorough evaluation of your symptoms. From there, we can recommend the appropriate treatment for your needs, including prescription antivirals or other medications. Whether you are dealing with a bothersome cold or a more severe flu, our team is here to guide you through the process and provide care that addresses your specific needs.
What Are the Benefits of Cold and Flu Care?
Thanks to advancements in modern medicine, it's often possible to handle cold or flu symptoms at home without additional help. For more serious cases, it's vital to work with an experienced medical provider who can guide your treatment. Some of the benefits of cold and flu care from our Sylva, NC team include:
- Ease uncomfortable symptoms, fever, congestion, and body aches
- Reduce the risk of future health complications, like pneumonia
- Shorten recovery time so you can return to normal activities faster
- Get medical attention when symptoms are severe or prolonged
Jackson Medical Associates Reviews
I have been to quite a few urgent cares in my life and this one is outstanding. Sydney was phenomenal and took great care of me. You could tell she was really concerned and wanted me to feel better ASAP. I will definitely come back here. If you have any hesitations, don’t they are the best.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jackson Medical Associates, but especially about Taylor Medlin, DNP. She is truly the reason my family chooses this clinic. As a mom of two boys, having a provider who is not only knowledgeable but genuinely caring and compassionate means everything.Taylor makes me feel completely comfortable every time we visit. She listens, never rushes, and always takes the time to explain things in a way that eases my worries. My boys adore her, and she has a special way of making both kids and parents feel understood and supported.She is hands down the best addition to the team at Jackson Medical Associates. We are so grateful for her, and I recommend her to anyone looking for a provider who treats you like family.
