Long-Term Effects of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has infected more than 20 million people and caused hundreds of thousands of deaths in the U.S. Most people who recover from COVID-19 return to normal health, but some suffer long-term effects which range from mild to severe and can last weeks or months after recovery from the acute stage. Integrative treatment options can be an important contribution to alleviating the long-term effects of COVID-19.

According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), common long-term effects of COVID-19 include fatigue, cough, joint pain, chest pain, depression, muscle pain, headache, shortness of breath and heart palpitations. Less common but more serious long-term symptoms affecting organ systems include:

• Cardiovascular: inflammation of the heart muscle
• Respiratory: lung function abnormalities
• Renal: acute kidney injury
• Dermatologic: rash, hair loss
• Neurological: smell and taste problems, sleep issues, difficulty with concentration, memory problems
• Psychiatric: depression, anxiety, changes in mood
