A Honor Society of Nursing (STTI) answered. Usually, the first effect of influenza on the body is a fever with chills and muscle aches. You may also have a fever, fatigue and a headache. Remember, the flu is caused by a group of viruses that infect the respiratory system. As a result, effects on the body often focus on the throat, nose, and lungs. The nose may become congested or runny, the throat may become sore, and a cough may move from dry to wet as the virus runs its course. The common cold primarily produces sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose, and a sore throat.
Hypothermia is a chilling of the entire body, but the extremities can withstand temperatures as much as 10 to 15Â°C (20 to 30Â°F) lower than the torso, where vital organs are located. When the core temperature drops even a few degrees, physiologic changes can lead to fatal cardiac arrhythmias and respiratory failure. Persons most at risk for accidental hypothermia include the very young, the very thin, the very old, the mentally challenged or emotionally unstable, alcohol and drug abusers, and the homeless.
