Flu vs Cold Symptom Checker
Mark the symptoms you feel and how strong they are — the checker compares your pattern against typical flu, common cold and allergy signs, then suggests practical next steps for each result.

How to use
- For every symptom in the table, choose None, Mild or Strong based on how you feel right now.
- Press Check My Symptoms — the bars show how closely your pattern matches flu, cold or allergy.
- Read the suggested next steps under your result.
Note: this is a simple pattern-matching guide, not a medical diagnosis. Many illnesses share these symptoms. See a doctor if you have a high fever, breathing difficulty, chest pain or symptoms that get worse instead of better.
Tips
- This is an information tool, not a diagnosis — see a doctor for severe or lasting symptoms.
- Sudden high fever with body aches points to flu more often than to a cold.
- Rest, fluids and isolation protect others while you recover from either illness.
