Abstract:
Post-COVID syndrome or long COVID is defined as COVID-19 associated illness that extends for more than three weeks from the onset of symptoms and chronic COVID-19 is an illness that extends beyond 12 weeks from the onset of symptoms. Two main symptom clusters of long COVID include those characterized solely by fatigue, headache, and upper respiratory symptoms; and those with multi-system complaints including ongoing fever and gastroenterological symptoms. The pathogenesis of post-COVID syndrome remains largely unknown and evidence states that prolonged inflammation has a key role in the pathogenesis of most post-COVID manifestations. The presence of more than five symptoms during the acute stage of the disease is linked to a higher likelihood of protracted COVID. Most commonly associated symptoms with long COVID include fatigue, headache, dyspnea, hoarse voice, and myalgia. Thus, the patients with COVID-19 require long-term monitoring and management of their post-COVID symptoms, even after they have recovered.
