As cases surged of COVID-19 in 2020, we saw stores, schools and businesses went remote. Doctors and researchers have worked nonstop to help those in need in the best ways.
Many are still unsure what to do if exposed or have contracted COVID-19. Doctors have been working and informing those on “how to control fevers and aches”, also when to call doctors and when to head to the emergency room. The most recent support gathered is evidence on how to manage and recover from an infection.
Some precautions are needed to ensure you overcome COVID-19 and to end the spread:
1. Get tested
2. The right at home treatments (hydration, movement, ibuphrohen)
3. Skip what’s questionable (everyone is different in symptoms
4. Take your temperature
5. Check oxygen and respiratory rates
6. Record other key measurements (blood pressure, sugar, heart rate, etc)
The road to recovery has been shown to take time and everyone’s case is different as well as the longevity of the symptoms. Build back your strength and get back to physical activity slowly also pre-existing conditions should be looked at and monitored more closely during the time and after infection. Finally there are programs and clinics that are handling lingering symptoms, so if they are persisting seek support and medical help.
