Complications of Post-Covid – Long-term effects
The long-term health impacts of the coronavirus outbreak remain unknown. The World Health Organization has said that it is too early to know whether there will be any lasting damage from this pandemic. However, some experts believe that the virus could cause permanent changes in people’s lungs or heart. This article looks at what we do know about how the disease affects your body over time.
What Causes Post-COVID Syndrome / Long COVID?
People when continue to experience mild symptoms post recovery called as Post Covid Syndrome or Long Covid, these people may experience post COVID conditions and also develop long-term complications that affect the organs.
The exact cause of this condition is unknown but it has been suggested by experts that there could be multiple factors responsible for causing this complication. Some of them include:
1) Immune system suppression due to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. This happens in some patients during their initial phase of disease. It leads to an overactive immune response which damages lung tissue.
2) The virus itself might trigger inflammation in the body. Inflammation is part of our normal defense mechanism against infections. However, if we have too much inflammation, then it becomes harmful.
3) A person’s genetic makeup plays a role in determining how well he/she recovers after contracting coronavirus infection.
What Can You Expect – Complications of Post-Covid?
People who recover from Covid-19 may experience mild symptoms such as a cough , fever, fatigue, muscle aches, headache, sore throat, runny nose, sneezing, chills, loss of taste or smell, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, chest tightness, difficulty breathing, confusion, memory problems, joint pains, skin rashes, swollen glands, or other flu-like symptoms.
People infected with Covid-19 often feel better within 2 weeks but might still need extra rest and take longer than usual to return to normal activities. It’s important to remember that most healthy adults should only see a doctor if they develop severe illness requiring hospitalization. If you’re feeling well enough to go back to work, school, or daycare, call ahead before going so someone else doesn’t get sick because of you.
Complications of Post-Covid: What to watch out for?
Some people who were diagnosed with Covid-19 had serious side effects like pneumonia, acute kidney injury, blood clots, stroke, cardiac arrest, sepsis, liver failure, shock, or death. Others experienced less severe outcomes, which included persistent dry cough, sinus congestion, wheezing, asthma attacks, bronchitis, earache, nausea/vomiting, dizziness, headaches, tiredness, weakness, rash, itching, numbness, tingling, blurred vision, hearing loss, insomnia, anxiety, depression, mood swings, irritability, trouble concentrating, or seizures. In addition, many people report having no symptoms at all.
What are Symptoms of Post-Covid Complications or Long-Covid?
If you think you’ve developed one of these possible complications, talk to your primary care provider right away. Your provider can help rule out other causes of similar symptoms and refer you to specialists if needed. Here are some things to look for:
Pneumonia: Pneumonia occurs when fluid collects in the air sacs inside your lung. You usually have two types of pneumonia — community-acquired and hospital-acquired. Community-acquired pneumonia happens outside of hospitals and nursing homes. Hospital facility-acquired pneumonia typically develops after being admitted to an intensive care unit or another type of high-level care setting. Symptoms include coughing up mucous, rapid breathing, low appetite, increased sleep, decreased activity level, and fever. A person with suspected pneumonia needs immediate evaluation by a physician. Treatment includes antibiotics and oxygen therapy.
Acute Kidney Injury: Acute kidney injury, sometimes called “kidney failure,” is a sudden decrease in kidney function. AKI can happen during surgery, trauma, infection, certain medications, pregnancy, childbirth, dehydration, or other illnesses. The kidneys filter waste products from the body and remove excess water and salt from the bloodstream.
When this filtering process isn’t functioning properly, it leads to buildup of fluids and wastes in the tissues and organs. This condition requires urgent medical attention. Signs of AKI include fatigue, muscle cramps, dark urine, cloudy urine, stomach ache, headache, lightheadedness, fainting, fast heart rate, slow pulse, cold hands and feet, yellow eyes or skin, lack of urination, and weight gain.
Blood Clot Formation: Blood clot formation is common among those who recover from coronavirus infections. Some patients experience deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, or any combination thereof. Deep vein thrombosis involves blockage of veins that carry deoxygenated blood back to the lungs. Pulmonary embolism refers to obstruction of arteries leading to the lungs.
Myocardial infarction means damage to the heart muscles due to insufficient supply of oxygen. Cerebrovascular accidents occur when there’s bleeding into brain tissue or swelling of brain cells. Transient ischemic attack is temporary interruption of blood flow to part of the brain caused by narrowing of a vessel supplying blood to the area. It often results in mild strokes but can lead to permanent disability.
Stroke: Strokes result from blocked blood vessels in the brain. They’re most likely to affect older adults, especially men over age 65. If someone has had a previous stroke, they’re at higher risk of developing another.
Other factors such as diabetes, smoking, obesity, hypertension, hyper-lipidemia, carotid artery disease, coronary artery disease, and family history increase the likelihood of having a first stroke. People with these risks should take steps to lower their chances of getting one. For example, people with cardiovascular diseases might consider quitting tobacco use; controlling cholesterol levels through diet and exercise; managing stress; avoiding alcohol consumption; and maintaining healthy weights.
Heart Failure: Heart failure is a serious illness where the heart doesn’t pump enough blood throughout the body. In some cases, the cause is unknown. But many times, it’s because of problems with valves, nerves, or scarring on the walls of the chambers of the heart. Left untreated, heart failure can worsen quickly and become life threatening.

Diagnosis of Post-COVID syndrome / Long COVID-19 effects
The diagnosis of post-Covid Syndrome/Long COVID-19 Effects requires an evaluation by your doctor. Your doctor will ask about any new symptoms you’ve had since recovering from COVID-19. He or she might order tests that check how well your kidneys work, whether your liver works properly, and if your lung functions are normal. You’ll likely need additional testing to rule out other possible causes of similar symptoms.
Conventional Treatment For Post Covid Syndrome
There isn’t much research yet on treatment options for this condition. However, doctors do know that certain medications used to treat high blood pressure, depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, and arthritis have been shown to help reduce inflammation. Some studies suggest taking omega 3 fatty acids could improve immune function after being infected with coronavirus. And, vitamin D supplements may boost immunity against infections.
Other treatments include physical therapy, acupuncture, massage, meditation, yoga, breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, counseling, and support groups. These therapies may provide relief from symptoms like muscle aches, fatigue, headaches, dizziness, confusion, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, chest tightness, difficulty sleeping, and coughing.
If you think you have post-Covid complications, talk to your doctor right away.
