Post-COVID-19 Conditions
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
The aftereffects of COVID-19 are the symptoms and problems that some people continue to have for weeks or months after the acute phase of infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Common symptoms: persistent fatigue, shortness of breath, palpitations, muscle aches, difficulty concentrating, and low tolerance for exertion.
When should you see a doctor? If the symptoms last, limit your daily activities, or new respiratory or cardiac problems appear.
Which specialist treats it? The approach can be multidisciplinary: the physical therapist supports physical and functional recovery, and when there is chest or cardiovascular involvement, the cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon steps in. Having a professional assess how the aftereffects of COVID-19 progress helps plan rehabilitation suited to each case.
