Rehabilitation after Covid-19. Part 1
Constant fatigue (tiredness)
- Patients suffering from Covid-19 repeatedly report feeling tired, exhausted and weak all the time, even weeks after infection. This is also confirmed by continuous follow-up of patients. It does not matter whether the course of the disease is severe or mild. About the post-coital syndrome.
- The lungs are usually severely affected by Covid 19. Severe patients often develop pneumonia. Typical long-term effects of coronavirus include shortness of breath and cough, especially with exercise. Pneumonia can cause long-term tissue damage, often requiring long-term oxygen therapy. The lungs can completely regenerate (!) even in the most severe diseases.
- The consequences of ventilatory support after pneumonia and covid19 are also troublesome for those affected. Patients with a severe course of Covid-19 who have had to be ventilated for several weeks suffer greatly from the long-term consequences: they have to learn to breathe on their own again because the muscles needed for breathing are destroyed during ventilations. Rebuilding these muscles is particularly difficult for the elderly.
The pulmonology room has all the necessary equipment for Covid-19 rehabilitation. You can also receive emergency treatment for breathing difficulties, bronchial asthma, COPD and low-saturation conditions.
