After
recovering from COVID-19 infection, many
patients find that their bodies are not
as strong as before or having symptoms
similar to the time of infection.
Especially lung and heart abnormalities
that don't work as well as
before.
Some patients who are
affected after coronavirus, develop
dementia in the 1-6 months after
COVID-19 infection, a condition in which
brain function deteriorates. Mostly in
meditation, decision making, planning,
and short-term memory skills. Those
people will be diagnosed with symptoms
of brain fatigue, inability to focus on
one thing, affecting daily activities,
work or social activities that can cause
long-term harm.
People at risk
for dementia include older adults with
multiple comorbidities. When there is an
acute infection with COVID-19 and severe
symptoms, it will cause a lack of
oxygen. As a result, patients have
depression and anxiety, neurological
symptoms and dementia.
The symptoms
of dementia can be better on their own
over time. They will need to stay fit,
eating nutritious food, exercising
regularly, getting enough sleep, doing
brain-boosting activities, practicing
critical thinking, practicing
meditation, or relaxing hobbies. Those
will help the brain and nervous system
to recover and return to normal faster
and better.
For patients with
underlying medical conditions,
especially stroke, high blood pressure,
diabetes, hyperlipidemia, or the elderly
with multiple comorbidities, treatment
should be continued. If your symptoms
don't improve within 6 months, see
your local doctor or treating
doctor.
