In the previous stage, during the period of rapid development of the new crown virus, it would be doubly deplorable to hear about the death cases. Many people were most concerned about how to save their lives. However, as the new crown epidemic in my country gradually stabilized, more and more confirmed patients were cured and discharged. At this time, many friends are concerned about such a question, what impact does the new coronavirus have on the human body? Will there be any sequelae after the virus invades the human body that will affect the quality of life in the future? Let's discuss it together today.

After the new coronavirus is cured, what effects may it have on the human body?

1) Damage to the lungs:

For severe patients, the new coronavirus can cause damage to pulmonary capillaries and tissue cells, that is, the "big white lung" we see when we take pictures. After a period of treatment, a certain degree of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis can occur. It has a greater impact on lung function. If the patient has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and long-term smoking, the lung function is low, and the lung disease will be aggravated after the virus invades.

2) Damage to the heart

In addition to lung damage, many patients with new coronary pneumonia also have heart damage. A 48-year-old woman from east London revealed in an interview that new coronary pneumonia left her with severe heart damage: "Nine weeks after recovery I had been feeling cold all the time, and then the doctor told me that I had congestive cardiomyopathy (weakened heart function, enlarged heart chambers, and the heart couldn’t pump enough blood), probably for the rest of my life, and most people will get better slowly, but Some may have pacemakers or even heart transplants."

3) Damage to liver and kidney

In addition to heart and lung, liver and kidney functions will also be affected to a certain extent, and some hospitals have also reported damage to the reproductive system such as male testicles. The British Daily Mail reported that a quarter of patients in intensive care developed liver or kidney failure and required years of dialysis to survive.

4) Damage to the brain

The damage to the nervous system caused by the new coronavirus has actually occurred in multiple cases before. The research on the nervous system of hospitalized patients with new coronary pneumonia by Hu Bo’s team, director of the Department of Neurology, Union Hospital Affiliated to Huazhong University of Science and Technology, showed that among 214 patients, more than 30% of the patients had neurological symptoms, which were specifically manifested in three categories: First, symptoms of the central nervous system Such as headache, dizziness, disturbance of consciousness, acute cerebrovascular disease, epilepsy, etc.; second, symptoms of peripheral nervous system such as loss of taste, loss of smell, loss of appetite, neuralgia, etc.; third, skeletal muscle damage.

Why may there be sequelae after being cured?

From a medical point of view, to evaluate whether there will be sequelae after a disease is cured, the evaluation can be started more than 6 months after the disease is cured, because our body has a certain self-healing ability, and many body organs caused by diseases are often affected. After the risk factors are eliminated, the body can repair itself, and then return to normal without any sequelae. It is still less than half a year since the outbreak of COVID-19 by this standard. Therefore, it is too early to assess whether there will be sequelae after discharge from the hospital. The sequelae that everyone is worried about will have to stand the test of time.

During the treatment of SARS, because there was no effective medicine, the disease developed rapidly and severely, and our understanding of the disease was insufficient. Therefore, a large amount of hormones were used to control the development of the disease during the treatment. Reversed injuries, such as femoral head necrosis, severely degrade the patient's quality of life.

The novel coronavirus pneumonia spreads rapidly. Most patients have mild symptoms and can be repaired through self-immunity. However, a small number of elderly and critically ill patients have poor physical fitness. After the virus invades, it will affect multiple organs, such as heart function and gastrointestinal function. , liver and kidney function, etc. Once these organs are damaged, it will take a long time to repair. We should regularly review this and strengthen rehabilitation treatment.

Summarize

Therefore, the overall mortality rate of new coronary pneumonia is about 2.3%. Most diagnosed patients without underlying diseases can be cured. A few elderly patients with chronic underlying diseases will have a significantly higher mortality rate due to low immunity. Complications still need time to verify, still can not say that cure equals to success, human still can not take it lightly.
