There may be neurologic complications secondary to COVID-19. The duration may vary, and close follow up with your specialist is recommended.

Some studies suggest that about 60% of COVID-19 patients can have ongoing cognitive or emotional issues over the six months following recovery. No evidence of peripheral nerve damage however. Yes, there are ways to manage this, and would recommend a virtual consult here at HT to explore this. Ask for neurologist (www.connect@healthtap.com)
