Post Covid Syndrome
Mild or moderate COVID-19 lasts about two weeks for most people. But others experience lingering health problems even when they have recovered from the acute phase of the illness.
In such patients, there is no longer live coronavirus running amok in the body. If tested, the person would test negative for the coronavirus, but they might be severely debilitated nonetheless.
The most common symptoms that can linger include:
-
Fatigue
-
Difficulty breathing
-
Joint pain
-
Chest pain
-
Brain fog, including an inability to concentrate and impaired memory
-
Loss of taste and/or smell
-
Sleep issues
We have helped patients alleviated their symptoms successfully using Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, even remotely. This experience was shared in Facebook's post covid long haulers group.
