Can you elaborate on how common is common? Also when does it become problematic?
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoConventional wisdom in the literature is that about 10% of flu cases develop it. (one source: https://casereports.bmj.com/content/12/7/e228201?rss=1 https://casereports.bmj.com/content/12/7/e228201?rss=1) I'm not aware of any rigorous data, because it's hard to detect. It becomes problematic when the inflammation is unusually severe, although I believe that in practice it's just never diagnosed unless it's severe enough to impact your quality of life.
