While the COVID-19 pandemic has been swept by many people, although they can recover quickly after infection, some people are still troubled by persistent symptoms, which is called "the new crown".This lasting epidemic is not only caused by acute infection, but also contains many problems after recovery, the most important of which is "continuous fatigue".
The study found that about one-third of COVID-19 recoverers experience persistent exhaustion and are unable to return to normal life even after weeks and months.
The new coronavirus is a lasting disease, which refers to the symptoms that patients continue to feel after recovery after they are infected with the virus.These symptoms are not limited to fatigue, but may also include ups and downs, difficulty breathing, sleep disorders, etc.According to reports, this series of symptoms is not uncommon among COVID-19 patients, but it still lacks sufficient understanding and research.
Why are so many people still falling into continuous fatigue even though the epidemic seems to have ended?The current view holds that this is related to the multiple effects of COVID-19 on the body.Studies have shown that post-infection is related to the immune system's response and may lead to the emergence of sequelae.When the body fights the virus, it may trigger an immune response, which in turn leads to excessive consumption of the body, which will continue to affect for a period of time after recovery.
"The lasting feeling of fatigue is not limited to physical fatigue after exercise, but also psychologically inability to return to normal state."
In addition, patients with long-term COVID-19 may experience psychological effects, including anxiety and depression, which can also aggravate the perception of fatigue.In response to this situation, medical experts recommend that these patients need continuous support and assistance to help them gradually restore their normal lives.
The symptoms of COVID-19 may interfere with every aspect of daily life, and many patients report impaired cognitive abilities and memory, a phenomenon known as "COVID brain fog."These symptoms may lead to a decrease in work ability and may also affect interpersonal relationships and social life.Surveys show that groups experiencing such persistent symptoms generally have lower quality of life.
"According to research, persistent fatigue and cognitive dysfunction can have profound effects on patients' quality of life."
As of now, specific methods for treating COVID-19 are still being explored.Up to now, maintaining physical health and psychological stability are two major priorities.Experts recommend maintaining regular exercise and a balanced diet to promote the body's natural repair process.In addition, consultation with a psychologist can also help improve the patient's mental health level.
At the same time, continuing to pay attention to the latest vaccination information, maintaining healthy hygiene habits, and avoiding reinfection of the virus are all effective measures to reduce the risk of new crown.
The international medical community has begun to conduct in-depth research on the impact of the long-term COVID-19 in order to better understand the causes of the development of these symptoms.These studies deal with the effects of viruses on the immune system and how to manage and deal with persistent chronic diseases over the long term.It is hoped that through such research, more effective intervention strategies can be found in the future to help patients with COVID-19 improve their quality of life.
Combined with the current medical evidence, the phenomenon of continuous fatigue is worrying, but with the deepening of research, the truth about the new crown will be gradually revealed.This is not only a challenge to those who have been infected, but also an important issue in how society supports them to return to normal life.How can we face this emerging health crisis and ensure that all patients receive the support and understanding they need?
