What is long COVID
Long COVID, also known as post-COVID-19 syndrome, refers to a range of symptoms that persist for weeks or months after the acute phase of a COVID-19 infection has resolved. These symptoms can vary widely and may affect multiple organ systems. Common symptoms include fatigue, shortness of breath, brain fog, joint pain, chest pain, and difficulty concentrating.
Long COVID can occur even in individuals who had mild or asymptomatic cases of COVID-19. The condition is still being studied, and the exact cause is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve lingering inflammation, immune system responses, and possibly damage to organs caused by the virus. Treatment typically focuses on managing symptoms and supporting recovery over time.
