      A patient who did not require hospitalization may not present any aftereffects, while a patient who was admitted to intensive care may have several aftereffects both due to the disease and immobility during treatment.

      Detect pulmonary fibrosis due to COVID-19 aftereffects in time

      One of the most affected functions after recovery from COVID-19 is the pulmonary function, the tissue is damaged and scars occur causing it to become thick and hard, making it difficult for oxygen to reach the blood vessels, affecting your breathing.

      The damage caused by pulmonary fibrosis is evolutionary and cannot be reversed. If caught early, it can be delayed and sometimes even stopped.

      When to consult
      a doctor?

      In case of presenting any symptoms mentioned in the table, see a specialist so that a pulmonary exploration can be carried out. The specialist may request additional tests, such as:

      • Respiratory capacity tests and studies.
      • Blood tests to evaluate other organs’ involvement.

      If detected early, pulmonary fibrosis can be stopped.

      Signs and symptoms of pulmonary fibrosis include the following:

      Symptoms:

      COVID-19 aftereffects

      Difficulty breathing.

      COVID-19 aftereffects

      A hacking, dry cough that does not get better.

      COVID-19 aftereffects

      Tiredness.

      Early detection of myocarditis is key to preventing long-term damage.

      Signs and symptoms of myocarditis include the following:

      Symptoms:

      COVID-19 aftereffects

      Chest pain. Abnormal or fast heart rhythms (arrhythmias).

      COVID-19 aftereffects

      Difficulty breathing at rest or during physical activity.

      Swelling of the legs, ankles, and feet. Fatigue.

      COVID-19 aftereffects

      Other signs and symptoms of a viral infection, such as headache, body aches, joint pain, fever, sore throat, or diarrhea.

      Detect Post-COVID-19 cardiovascular aftereffects early

      Patient case studies suggest that COVID-19 generates aftereffects in the cardiovascular system, in some cases presenting inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis). When the heart is inflamed, it cannot pump effectively due to edema, which can lead to heart failure, abnormal heart rates (arrhythmias), and sudden death.

      Early diagnosis is key to preventing long-term heart damage.

      When to consult a doctor?

      In case of presenting any symptoms mentioned in the table, see a specialist so that a cardiovascular examination can be carried out. The specialist may request additional tests, such as:

      • Electrocardiogram (EKG)
      • MRI
      • Echocardiogram

      Depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic
      stress disorder
      can be COVID-19 aftereffects

      These aftereffects can be caused both by the immune response to the virus or by stressors such as social isolation, the psychological impact of a new serious and possibly fatal disease, or concern about contagion to family and friends.

      Depression: It is an emotional disorder that causes a constant feeling of sadness and a loss of interest in doing different activities.

      Anxiety: People with anxiety disorders often have intense, excessive, and persistent worries and fears about everyday situations.

      Post-traumatic stress disorder: It is a mental health illness triggered by a terrifying situation, whether you have experienced or witnessed it.
