After being infected with new crown ,
How to judge whether you have recovered?
01
Many parents said that their children or themselves had no symptoms around the fifth day. has no symptoms, does that mean he is cured? No longer contagious?
is not the case.
Based on clinical experience, it is recommended that everyone be quarantined for 7 days after being infected with the new coronavirus. Because around the 5th day, although there were no symptoms, was still contagious and it was not considered completely recovered.
and according to the currently implemented ninth edition of the "Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Plan", after being infected with the new coronavirus, the following conditions must be met to achieve the cure standard:
first, the body temperature returns to normal for more than 3 days;
second, The symptoms have basically disappeared or improved significantly;
Third, if there are pneumonia symptoms, the pneumonia lesions have been significantly absorbed during reexamination;
Fourth, the nucleic acid test has been negative for 2 consecutive days, or the Ct value ≥ 35, or the antigen has been negative for 3 consecutive times.
In other words, if you or your child is infected with the new crown, the body temperature has returned to normal, the relevant symptoms have disappeared, and the nucleic acid is negative for 2 consecutive days, or the antigen is negative for 3 consecutive days, it means recovered.
At this time, if you come into contact with someone who has not been exposed to the virus, you will not be contagious. People who have not been exposed to the virus do not need to worry! After
becomes positive, will
be "recovered" or " re-infected "?
02
There have been many news reports in the past two days. After some people's nucleic acid or antigen turned negative, they returned to positive again after a few days, and they also felt a little uncomfortable.
Therefore, after Yang Kang, it is possible to "recover Yang"!
On December 24, 2022, in Shanghai, a large number of citizens waited for treatment in a fever clinic of a hospital. In order to meet the needs of fever diagnosis and treatment services for different groups of people,
"recovery of yang" generally occurs in a short period of time, such as 2 to 3 weeks after turning negative. At this time, there are still some virus fragments in the body, and it is easy to detect " positive " results again.
However, the infectivity of after "recovering positive" is very low, and usually does not cause infection to surrounding people. If "recover positive", normal home isolation and symptomatic care are sufficient.
As for the "secondary infection" of , after the previous infection has completely recovered, 's body antibodies have declined over time, and has been infected by the virus again.
It is generally believed that after being infected with Omicron for the first time, the antibody level in the body is relatively high in the short term, and html will not be infected again for 23 to 6 months.
However, If the virus mutates and its immune evasion ability becomes stronger, the risk of secondary infection may increase!
Therefore, after recovery, parents and children still need to take good protection. Don’t think that after being infected once, everything will be fine and you don’t need to wear a mask. We must continue to take strict precautions and avoid secondary infections as much as possible!
After a child becomes healthy,
we must be wary of this disease!
03
Compared with adults, children generally have milder symptoms after being infected with COVID-19. However, children may develop multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children 2 to 6 weeks after recovering from COVID-19!
This is a disease caused by children's immune system overreacting . The inflammation sites may include heart, lungs, kidneys, brain, skin, eyes or gastrointestinal organs .
Although most children will recover after treatment, there are still some children whose condition is more serious and even life-threatening!
Therefore, parents should pay special attention to the following conditions within 2 months after their children are infected with COVID-19:
● Persistent fever (the maximum body temperature can reach 39℃~40℃);
● Reduced mobility, general weakness, dizziness, confusion, and convulsions;
● Stomach pain and vomiting Vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice;
● There is the phenomenon of non-stop bleeding;
● Heart palpitations, pain in the heart and mouth, difficulty breathing, etc.;
● Symptoms of Kawasaki disease ( conjunctivitis, red and burst lips, strawberry tongue, swollen neck glands, red and swollen skin, redness and swelling at the site of BCG vaccination).
As for why some children may develop multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children after being infected with COVID-19, the related causes are still under further study. As parents, we can only be careful, careful, and more careful!
After Yang Kang,
should I do lung CT?
04
Indeed, lung CT examination results are the gold standard for judging the degree of new coronavirus pneumonia infection.
From the perspective of disease treatment principles, once infected with the new coronavirus, in principle, a lung CT is performed to determine whether there is "viral lung", as well as the scope and severity of "viral lung".
However, considering the tense situation of medical resources and after most people are infected with Omicron, the symptoms are mainly concentrated in the upper respiratory tract and do not involve the lungs.
Therefore, unless symptoms are more severe , including stubborn cough, sputum production, difficulty breathing, chest tightness, repeated fever, etc.
Especially some elderly people who have underlying diseases, such as diabetes , COPD, coronary heart disease , etc., can easily develop into severe illness after infection.
These groups can do a lung CT to see whether there is "viral lung", the scope and severity of "viral lung".
For most patients with mild symptoms, especially after Yang Kang, it is not very necessary to do lung CT!
After getting healthy,
keeps feeling sleepy and what should I do if I cough?
05
Although the symptoms have turned negative, it will take some time for the recovery of body functions and physical strength.
html After 22 to 3 weeks, this fatigue and fatigue will gradually ease.
At the same time, during this period, the intensity of life and work should be slowed down to allow the body to slowly adapt, pay attention to rest, strengthen nutrition, and promote the body to return to normal state.
As for coughing after turns negative, it is also normal. excretes dead immune cells , cells damaged by viruses and other garbage in the airway through coughing and expectoration. usually gets better within 2 weeks.
However, if the following conditions occur, you must go to the hospital in time:
● Coughing up blood (blood in sputum);
● Coughing up a large amount of yellow and thick phlegm ;
●Coughing worsens at night (or when changing body position);
●Fever again, shortness of breath, dyspnea, chest pain and other original symptoms are significantly aggravated;
●Coughing for more than 2 weeks.
After recovery, how soon can
take a bath and exercise?
06
During the period of infection with the new coronavirus, if you are in the acute attack period , such as having a high fever and feeling unwell, it is not recommended to take a bath.
After Yang Kang, you have to look at your physical condition. If your body temperature has returned to normal, you can wash your hair and take a bath with warm water.
But be careful not to wash for too long. After washing, you should dry your hair and body in time, replenish moisture as soon as possible, keep warm and avoid catching cold.
and what everyone is concerned about is . How long will it take to start exercising after Yangkang?
You must know that Messi almost couldn't play football after being infected with the new crown. This was because when the new crown was recovering, he was eager to return to the field and exercised too early, which affected the recovery process.
So after you are healthy, you must not rush to exercise! Especially children are more active and can't sit still. At this time, we must keep an eye on it and let the child resume exercise step by step after at least 7 days without any symptoms.
For example, in the first week after turns cloudy, we can wash the dishes, water the flowers, walk around the house, wipe the table, and mop the floor.
Wait until the second week after the cloudiness turns negative, and then do some low-intensity exercise, such as taking a walk.
When there is no physical discomfort, increase the exercise intensity to a higher level in the third week after turning negative..
After one month of negative symptoms, and no symptoms of discomfort during this period, we will consider returning the exercise intensity to the intensity before the infection.
said that the last
period was also the period of high incidence of winter respiratory tract infections . In addition to the new crown, there were also influenza, respiratory syncytial virus and so on.
Therefore, we must continue to adhere to the good habits such as washing hands frequently, ventilating frequently, wearing masks when going out, and maintaining social distance that we have been doing before!
Winter is almost over, everything is moving in a good direction, we are waiting for the arrival of spring together!
