Post covid syndrome is defined as health complications lasting more than 12 weeks after overcoming Covid-19. It has long been encountered by people who have overcome pneumonia and had to be hospitalized, but also by those with a mild or even asymptomatic course of the disease. Post-covid syndrome occurs among adults of all ages, and paradoxically often in young and asymptomatic.
According to Dr.Michal Kopecký, head of the Post covid centre of the Hradec Kralove University Hospital, symptoms persist for more than 5 weeks in up to one third of people. "Every tenth patient does not feel well even after 12 weeks and often much longer," said Hans Kluge, head of the European WHO, at the end of February this year. With 650,000 confirmed cases in the Slovak Republic by April 2021, more than 100,000 Slovaks had long-term consequences.
Due to the wide range of problems, it cannot be fully generalized. Neurological problems include memory problems or frequent migraines, and mental discomfort is manifested, for example, by a tendency to depression. People feel out of shape, eternally tired and have an increased heart rate even in a load that would not have taken them out of normal in the past. Respiratory problems are very common.
"Many people have long-term problems with cough, they get tired quickly. They often have headaches, chest and lumbar spine and their condition does not allow them to exercise ..." describes the head of the Barna Medical rehabilitation medicine clinic, Dr. Miloš Barna.
This is a very complex question that doctors from all over the world are looking for answers to. One of the possibilities is rehabilitation, in which several clinics or spas in Slovakia specialize. Another option is to supplement vitamins, minerals and extracts from medicinal plants, which can naturally help to combat persistent symptoms. In addition to pandemic vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D, vitamin C, zinc and magnesium, Baicalin appears promising. Baicalin is an extract from the root of the Baikal pine cone, which has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for years to alleviate inflammatory processes in the body. It has been shown to have a positive effect on the condition of muscles and joints, improved sleep cycles, and recent studies suggest its positive effect on Covid-19 in preventing virus replication or its ability to regenerate damaged lung tissue. Extract from valerian, magnesium or 5-HTP can help improve relaxation and sleep.To je veľmi komplexná otázka, na ktorú hľadajú lekári z celého sveta odpoveď. Jednou z možností je rehabilitácia, na ktorú sa špecializujú viaceré kliniky či kúpele na Slovensku. Ďalšou možnosťou je doplnenie vitamínov, minerálnych látok a výťažkov z liečivých rastlín, ktoré môžu prírodným spôsobom pomôcť v zdolávaní pretrvávajúcich symptómov. Nádejná sa okrem už pandémiou preverených vitamínov a minerálov ako je vitamín D, vitamín C, zinok či magnézium javí Baikalin. Baikalin je extrakt z koreňa šišiaka bajkalského, ktorý sa v tradičnej čínskej medicíne používa roky na zmiernenie zápalových procesov v tele. Má preukázaný pozitívny vplyv na stav svalov a kĺbov, zlepšenie spánkových cyklov a najnovšie štúdie naznačujú jeho pozitívny vplyv pri ochorení Covid-19 v zabránení replikácie vírusu, či jeho schopnosť regenerácie poškodených pľúcnych tkanív. Lepšiemu uvoľneniu a zaspávaniu môže napomôcť zas extrakt z valeriány lekárskej, magnézium či 5-HTP.
