| General note | Introduction: Long-COVID, is the collective name given to denote persistence of symptoms for<br/>weeks or months in those who have recovered from SARS-COV-2 infection. If the relapsing<br/>symptoms are left undetected, can lead to chronic conditions. Still some work needs to be done<br/>to determine the correlation of the previous illnesses with the severity of post-COVID<br/>symptoms.<br/>Method: A questionnaire survey was spread amongst Pakistani population. About 83 COVID-19<br/>survivors were included in the study, who were asked about any occurrence of symptoms at<br/>recovery, the experience and duration of the post-viral symptoms.<br/>Results: Out of 83 participants, 59(71.7%) experienced relapsing symptoms at 3 weeks from the<br/>onset of the viral infection, with 34(44.6%) having to face those symptoms for 3-4 weeks (postacute COVID). Females were significantly more likely to experience fatigue (p=0.014) and<br/>severity (p=0.032). The presence of symptoms was not associated with any therapy or activity.<br/>The presence of mild symptoms is common after the COVID-19 infection with those already<br/>suffering from anxiety, allergies, hypertension, and diabetes.<br/>Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of assessing those recovering from mild<br/>COVID-19 with acute-fatigue. Moreover, further longitudinal research in this area can help<br/>understand the management of chronic situations. |
