Why does your daughter have painful feet with Swine Flu?

Answer 1

The flu does cause aches and pains and can inflame joints, like the joints in your feet and ankles. This could be the source of the pain your daughter is having in her feet. However, it is not clear from just "painful feet" if that is the problem since it is not a common complaint with Swine Flu as you have worded it. If you know that your daughter has swine flu, then you may want to contact the diagnosing physician and ask about these symptoms to be sure there isn't some other cause of the pain. The symptoms of the flu can vary greatly from person to person, so she may have to actually see the health care professional for a definitive diagnosis of the foot pain, especially if the pain is severe and not like muscle or inflammed joint pain.
