THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Health experts say that if you still feel excessive fatigue and shortness of breath three months after Covid infection, you should seek the services of a doctor to ensure heart safety. Infection with the virus in the body can lead to a variety of heart problems. It can cause damage to the blood vessels and a decrease in the pumping of blood to the heart.

Doctors estimate that there has been an increase in the number of people seeking treatment for heart disease post-Covid infection. Those with severe health problems during the Covid period may need up to three months to fully recover. Avoid engaging in hard work during this period.

At the same time, there is no accurate estimate of how many people have heart disease because of Covid. This is because it is not clear what kind of study is required. Antibodies are present in those who have been vaccinated and those who got infected. Therefore, the presence of antibodies in the body of people with heart disease alone does not indicate that the cause of the disease is Covid. Doctors say many people are diagnosed with diabetes and cholesterol through tests done after Covid.

These should be noted

Chronic dizziness, fatigue, shortness of breath, increased heart rate, chest pain
