Long COVID

COVID-19 is a novel virus and after becoming ill, whether mild or severe illness, some experience lingering symptoms for months or even years. These people were said to have "long COVID." Some call these symptoms the “pandemic after the pandemic” and many are suffering silently.

The symptoms of long COVID can be different for everyone. Some people have just a few symptoms, while others have many. The most common symptoms include:

  • Fatigue

  • Shortness of breath

  • Difficulty concentrating

  • Sleep problems

  • Muscle aches

  • Chest pain

  • Loss of smell or taste

Adverse effect of Long COVID

Long COVID can also cause other problems, such as:

  • Heart problems

  • Brain fog

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

There is no one-size-fits-all treatment for long COVID. A combination of treatments, such as rest, exercise, medication, and therapy are often utilized. Sometimes it can take a team of specialists to evaluate and manage the long-term effects and here at Evergreen we are here to help you find that team, manage your symptoms, and aid in restoring your health.
