Have you recovered from a viral illness but still don't feel well? This is common with flu, but also with other viral and bacterial diseases. After an infection, bone and joint problems can appear, including pain, weakness and fatigue in the joints and muscles.
Because of the viral infection and the body's reaction, after most viral and bacterial infections a person will feel malaise, lack of strength, sweating and muscle and joint pain, or will have neurological symptoms such as headache, tingling and muscle weakness. In most cases, good rest, controlled physical activity and a proper diet rich in vitamins, fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as fish and meat, are needed.
Sometimes post-infectious complications can occur, such as:
• post-infectious bacterial or viral arthritis
• dizziness
• myositis
• Lyme disease
• post-infectious syndrome
Post-infectious viral syndrome after coronavirus infection is still being intensively researched, and the time ahead will give us many answers. Follow the news from our doctors at Faktor Zdravlje Polyclinic at Selska 137 in Zagreb.
