What If You Get the Flu? But even if you steer clear of sneezers and you wash your hands regularly, you still might get the flu. At the doctor's office, the doctor will ask you how you've been feeling and examine you. He or she might use a long cotton swab to get a sample of the gunk in your nose or throat.

Based on your symptoms, your doctor can usually tell if you have the flu, especially during times when a lot of flu is going around your town.
