Post-covid syndromes :- these may shake your heart for a while.

 Getting recovered from the fatal covid-19 was the great win. Congratulations to you and everyone who survived the disaster.But , What do you think, is your fight with the COVID finished ???

"No" , says the experts.

According to research made by different groups, it came to know that certain post covid complications might be more fatal than the actual disease itself. The virus that causes COVID-19 can have long-lasting symptoms in certain affected individuals. These effects are referred to as post-COVID conditions (PCC) or long COVID. This post covid syndrome or simply long term covid is given the many names as long COVID, long-haul COVID, post-acute COVID-19, post-acute sequelae of SARS CoV-2 infection (PASC), long-term effects of COVID, and chronic COVID.

Numerous persistent health issues that can continue for weeks, months, or years are considered post-COVID illnesses. However, anyone who has been infected with the virus that causes COVID-19, even those who had mild illness or no symptoms from COVID-19, can experience post-COVID conditions. Post-COVID conditions are more frequently found in people who had severe COVID-19 illness. When compared to those who were immunized and experienced breakthrough infections, those who are not protected from COVID-19 and contract the disease may also be at an increased risk of acquiring post-COVID problems. Although the majority of patients with post-COVID problems have signs of infection or COVID-19 disease, it is possible for such a person to have neither tested positive for the virus nor been aware that they were infected. The CDC and its partners are seeking to better understand who develops post-COVID problems and why, as well as whether or whether groups that were disproportionately affected by COVID-19 are more vulnerable.



What is post covid syndrome ?

The term "post-COVID conditions" refers to a wide range of health issues that people may develop after initially contracting the virus that causes COVID-19. These issues may be brand-new, recurring, or ongoing. The development of post-COVID problems might be observed at least four weeks after infection because most COVID-19 patients recover within a few days to a few weeks after infection. Post-COVID symptoms can affect anyone who contracted the infection. When they discovered they had COVID-19, the majority of persons with post-COVID problems began to exhibit symptoms days after contracting SARS CoV-2, but some of these individuals were unaware of their initial infection when they developed their diseases. There is no test to identify post-COVID issues, and individuals may experience a wide range of symptoms that could be caused by other medical conditions. This can make it challenging for medical professionals to identify post-COVID disorders. Your doctor will review your medical history, including if you have ever been diagnosed with COVID-19 due to a positive test result, symptoms, or exposure, as well as do a physical exam.

Symptoms of post covid syndrome 

People with post-COVID problems may experience a variety of symptoms that last for up to four months after the infection. Sometimes the symptoms may even subside or return. Not everyone may experience post-COVID symptoms in the same way. People who have post-COVID illnesses may suffer from health issues as a result of various sorts and combinations of symptoms occurring over various amounts of time. Most patients' symptoms gradually get better over time. But for other patients, post-COVID problems may persist for months or even years after a COVID-19 illness and occasionally lead to disability.

Most common symptoms reported are 

Muscular and the joint pain 

Appearance of rashes in different regions of the body.

Dry cough followed by chest pain and difficulty in breathing and fast heart beating(heart pounding)

Fever, tiredness ,nausea , difficulty in doing physical and mental tasks.

Sleeplessness and dizziness while standing 

Depression and anxiety 

Difficulty in concentration and performing high efficiency mental tasks.

Nerves problems that may lead to lose of sense in some organs.


These are the known symptoms for the post covid syndromes. But some of the patients may even suffer more . Their problems or symptoms are not identified but they suffer from inside. Those who have post-COVID disorders may start to experience or keep experiencing symptoms that are challenging to diagnose and treat. Regular blood tests, chest x-rays, and electrocardiograms may yield normal clinical evaluations and outcomes. The symptoms are reminiscent of those experienced by patients with ME/CFS (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome) and other chronic illnesses that are not fully understood and can follow other infections. It may take a long time for patients with these unexplained symptoms to acquire a diagnosis and the right care or therapy since their medical professionals may misinterpret their symptoms. Review the following advice to help you get ready for a visit with a doctor for post-COVID issues.


Some individuals, particularly those who had a severe COVID-19 sickness, develop multiorgan effects or autoimmune disorders with symptoms that persist for weeks or months. Many different physiological systems, such as the heart, lung, kidney, skin, and brain, can be affected by multiorgan effects. Due to these side effects, those who have undergone COVID-19 may be more prone than those who have not to experience new health issues, such as diabetes, cardiac problems, or neurological issues.


PICS is a term used to describe health consequences that may start when a patient is in an intensive care unit (ICU) and may continue once they are discharged. These side effects may include weakened muscles, issues with judgment and reasoning, and signs of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Long-term responses to a severely traumatic incident are part of PTSD. It can be challenging to tell whether severe illness, the virus itself, or a combination of the two is to blame for health issues that appear in PICS after a COVID-19 diagnosis.


Researchers are attempting to determine which individuals or populations are more susceptible to post-COVID problems and why. According to studies, some demographic groups may be more susceptible to post-COVID disorders. These are only a few examples of individuals or groups who might be more vulnerable than other populations to developing post-COVID conditions: individuals with more severe COVID-19 illnesses, particularly those who required hospitalization or specialized care. individuals with underlying medical issues prior to COVID-19 individuals who skipped the COVID-19 immunization. individuals who develop multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS) when unwell with COVID-19 or shortly afterwards.


Prevention for long COVID 

According to research, those who are vaccinated yet develop a breakthrough infection are less likely than those who are not to report post-COVID symptoms. So proper vaccine is the most to somehow prevent the long term covid.

 Speaking at a commemoration of the Korean War, Mr. Kim also said that the nation was "totally prepared for any military confrontation" with the US, according to state news agency KCNA. The remarks come amid worries that North Korea may be getting ready for its seventh nuclear test. The US issued a caution about Pyongyang's potential for such a test last month. 2017 saw North Korea conduct its most recent nuclear test. On the Korean peninsula, though, tensions have been increasing. What is a nuclear weapon? An explosive device that derives its destructive power from nuclear fusion, nuclear fission, or a combination of the two is referred to as a nuclear weapon. Atom bombs, atomic bombs, A-bombs, nuclear bombs, nuclear warheads, and simply "nuke" are several names for nuclear weapons. Fission and combination weapons and even more destructive fusion-based designs, which are technically thermonuclear weapons but are more often known as thermonuclear bombs, fusion w

Giving young blood to old people can increase their lifespan ???

-
Image
Recently an experiment was performed in the mice in which young and old mice were surgically connected such that they shared blood circulation for three months, it was discovered that the longevity of the older mice was not greatly increased. But the younger mice that shared the blood with the older one was found with the decreased lifespan compared to the mice that shared it's blood with the other younger mice.   This whole experiment was based on Heterochronic parabiosis .   Parabiosis, which is derived from two Greek words "para" (next to) and "bios" (life), describes when two completely living creatures are surgically linked and grow a single, shared circulatory system. The method, which can involve the transplantation of cells, tissues, or entire body parts like limbs or other appendages from one creature to another, is essentially a more thorough version of "transbiosis." Since each animal can be seen as an equal partner in the coupling and each

china-Taiwan conflict & why Taiwan is important to the rest of the world?

-

Follow @OmEnigma                                        Around Taiwan, China is conducting its largest-ever display of military might, including the firing of ballistic missiles. The military drills come after Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the US House of Representatives, visited the island. China views Taiwan as a secessionist province that will eventually return to being ruled by Beijing. The self-governing island, with its own constitution and freely elected officials, perceives itself as different from the mainland. President Xi Jinping of China has stated that "reunification" with Taiwan "must be realized" and has left open the possibility of using force to accomplish this. History of china-Taiwan According to historical records, the island was first fully governed by China in the 17th century, when the Qing dynasty took it. After losing the first Sino-Japanese war, they later ceded the island to Japan in 1895. After Japan lost the Second World War, China seize

Corona virus is not over and we are in the verse of some other dangerous virus MONKEYPOX.  This new threat is hitting the world so that even the major countries like US and UK are witnessing death cases everyday . Worldwide occurrences of monkeypox are rising, notably in the US, where the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have recorded hundreds of cases since May. An international coordinated response is necessary in response to the global health emergency proclaimed by the World Health Organization. It becomes sense that news of a new virus spreading over the world could raise concerns after more than two years of the Covid-19 outbreak. Although medical professionals believe that monkeypox is unlikely to result in a situation similar to that of the corona virus, concerns about vaccination programs and how monkeypox is propagated still exist. These are some responses. What is monkeypox ? The virus that causes monkey pox is comparable to smallpox, although the symptoms are mild

 Russian forces target Siversk and Bakhmut in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk province. Russian attempts to attack Verkhnokamyanske, east of Siversk, have been reported by the Ukrainian military staff as fruitless. Moreover, according to the general staff, Ukrainian forces thwarted Russian attempts to approach Bakhmut in Soledar, Semihirya, and Berestove. The Derhachi city council reports intense combat in several communities to the north of Kharkiv, the second-largest city in Ukraine.  HIMARS rocket artillery used by Ukrainian forces causes damage to the Antonivka vehicle and rail bridges, making them useless for heavy military transit. This aids in cutting off Russian positions in advance in Kherson, in southern Ukraine. Russian soldiers also make minor offensive attempts in the south but retreat from Davydiv Brid and Bilohirka.                                     Map of Ukraine showing kharkiv city  According to the general staff of Ukraine, its troops suffered casualties while repell

The first case of this disease was confirmed in may 2022 WHAT IS MONKEYPOX ? -While clinically less severe than smallpox, monkeypox is a viral zoonosis (a virus that spreads from animals to people). It has symptoms that are comparable to those of smallpox. Monkeypox has replaced smallpox as the most significant orthopoxvirus for public health since smallpox was eradicated in 1980 and smallpox vaccinations were subsequently discontinued. Primarily affecting central and west Africa, monkeypox has been spreading into cities and is frequently seen close to tropical rainforests. A variety of rodents and non-human primates serve as animal hosts. WHAT CAUSES

Heart problems due to Corona virus & possible cures

 In our normal understanding we consider covid 19 as a respiratory problem and this consideration is a fact. But our body works on the mutual coordination of all the systems.  Respiratory system functions for the intake and the exhale of the gases in the body , that has intaken is then taken by the blood which comes under circulatory system, this gas in blood helps in breaking down of nutrients that's the part of digestive system and all the functions are voluntarily or involuntarily controlled by the nervous system. Here how we see briefly that how all the systems are correlated. So if these all are interrelated then , even a small problem in one system will directly effect the another one. Same is the case here , though the chief attacking site for the corona virus is respiratory system but it has a lot of affects on the cardiac system either they are directly by the virus or by some other affect caused by virus on some other systems.
