MARQUETTE, Mich. (WLUC) - Although most people with COVID-19 get better within
weeks, some experience post-COVID conditions.

Dr. Brad Uren is an associate professor of emergency medicine at the University
of Michigan. He says lingering conditions can vary.

“Very commonly we’ll see people with a persistent cough, trouble breathing
especially with exercise. They’re noticing they can’t do the things that they
were doing pre-infection. Some of them are having chronic chest pains they’re
having a lot of discomfort in their chest that’s not found a clear explanation,”
he said.

With the previous Delta variant, the symptoms were more obvious like loss of
taste. Omicron’s effects have generally been less severe. LMAS District Health
Department public information officer Kerry Ott says this poses new challenges.

“The problem with Omicron is that we may take it like we have the sniffles, we
have a cold, but it may actually be Omicron and may spread it to someone else
who may have severe results from it,” she said.

Both say plenty of rest and fluids are the key to easing some of these effects.
But if the symptoms do worsen, contact your doctor or 911 in an emergency. Uren
says lingering effects can be treated but that varies between people.

“There are certain things that can be used for treating cough and other symptoms
but many of those are over the counter. Some people who have conditions like
asthma or COPD that have specific lung issues may benefit from inhalers or other
specific treatments and that’s something they need to talk to their doctor
about,” said Uren.

Uren says that clinics are opening up across the country that helps treat
long-haul COVID symptoms and to contact your doctor if you are concerned about
lingering symptoms.
