Among the main and almost always occurring symptoms of coronavirus is noted increase in body temperature up to 37 – 38 degrees, while with flu, for example, these indicators most often rise to 39 ° C. It is also noteworthy that with COVID-19, the temperature can last for about a week. In general, this phenomenon is normal.
Another characteristic symptom is coughwhich is present in patients in 80% of cases. It is worth noting that with a cold, a dry cough turns into a wet cough after 2-3 days and passes after the disease expires. Coronavirus is characterized by a prolonged dry cough, which does not want to “soften” in any way.
Another sign of a new infection is fatigue and body aches… They appear in 40% of cases and make a person incredibly weak, which is why he can spend almost the whole day in bed.
Perhaps the most notable symptom of coronavirus is loss of smell, to which many managed to pay attention. In some cases, this symptom may be the only clinical manifestation of the coronavirus. However, in this case, it is best to consult a doctor, since the absence of odors may indicate another ailment.
An alarming symptom is dyspnea… This sign of infection makes itself felt by the 8th day of the course of the disease. Doctors say that if a patient has shortness of breath, it can be concluded that the disease is moderate.
The associated symptom is feeling of pressure and congestion in the chest… However, this symptom appears less often. In addition to all the above symptoms, the coronavirus is characterized by headaches, diarrhea, vomiting and arrhythmia.
