Understanding Long COVID
Long COVID refers to persistent symptoms that occur for weeks or months after the acute phase of COVID-19. These symptoms can include fatigue, respiratory difficulties, cough, chest pain, tingling in the limbs, digestive disorders, anxiety, and depression. It is important to get checked out by a healthcare professional to rule out other possible causes for these symptoms. Long COVID can impact the immune system and even affect the brain, leading to psychopathological conditions like depression and anxiety. Education and awareness are crucial to help individuals recognize and seek treatment for their long COVID symptoms.
