More and more patients diagnosed with the new crown have been diagnosed with "long new crown" after recovery. What is "Long Coronavirus"? What are the main symptoms? These issues are a cause for concern. Among them, what is the brain fog phenomenon in "long new crown" patients? Please look at the phoenix TV reporter's report -
Covid-19 recovered patient Zhang Lilian:
"My shoulders hurt on both sides, and at night, my whole body hurts, and there's no defined position. The muscles will twitch from time to time, and the stomach will be so bad. ”
Grandma Cheung, 75, who lives in Whampoa Gardens, Hung Hom, Hong Kong, was diagnosed with COVID-19 at the end of February 2022. 3 to 4 days after recovery, the body begins to experience significant soreness, gastrointestinal discomfort, and tinnitus. Among them, what worries Grandma Zhang the most is that her memory has deteriorated sharply and she has begun to forget the East and the West.
Specialist, Department of Infectious and Infectious Diseases, Chinese University Hospital, Hong Kong, Mr Chua Kin Wing:
"The situation of brain fog mainly refers to two aspects, on the one hand, the decline of personal concentration, such as finding that you cannot concentrate at work; on the other hand, it is easy to forget some short-term memories. These symptoms are typical in 'long-term coronavirus' patients. ”
Cai Jianrong said that among the 100 people who have recovered from the new crown, about 20% will develop into a "long new crown", that is, a long-term symptom of the new crown. In addition, brain fog, shortness of breath, and easy tiredness are the three common symptoms of "long new crown". These symptoms can usually slowly lessen over time, but some conditions may last for 1 to 2 years. So, can the "long new crown" be fully recovered through treatment?
Specialist, Department of Infectious and Infectious Diseases, Chinese University Hospital, Hong Kong, Mr Chua Kin Wing:
"There is still no answer to the question of whether the 'long new crown' can be fully recovered. We know that there are many possibilities for the reasons behind the 'long new crown', and different possibilities will lead to different outcomes, including the difference in the so-called 'length' of the disease, and the difference in 'severity'. ”
Dr. Cai pointed out that the elderly, women, and patients diagnosed with covid-19 with underlying diseases such as diabetes have a higher chance of developing symptoms of "growing new crown".
At present, the international "long new crown" is still in the preliminary stage of exploration, but doctors suggest that vaccination and maintaining good living habits are the most active and effective ways to prevent new crown pneumonia and "long new crown".
