Doctors/Nurses? Is this normal?

Question

I caught the Coxsackie virus about two weeks ago on vacation, when I came home it was getting better slowly.. then I went on vacation again & got my period & it got bad again.

Is this normal?

Did it get worse because I was switching environments so much, or because I got my period & it slowed down my immune system?

Do Antiviral foods help at all?

Answer 1

There are no, 'antiviral foods' per sa, and none that have been proven effective. Virus's can behave like this, it's perfectly normal, just get rest, increase fluid intake and wait it out.

Answer 2

No, take anything that relieves your symptoms, as simple analgesics, plenty of fluids.

There are no antiviral foods, relax if you can, stress aggravates any illness.
