Some people have residual symptoms and the relationship with Covid is being worked out. Visit this site for info: Long term effects of Covid-19 https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in-depth/coronavirus-long-term-effects/art-20490351#:~:text=COVID%2D19%20symptoms%20can,within%20a%20few%20weeks Wish you good health!

At this point, the relationship between COVID-19 and peripheral nerve disorders is not fully worked out. Would definitely contact your doctor at this point, and if symptoms persist, consider EMG/ NCS procedure. Although blood vessel involvement has been seen, and large vessel strokes have occurred, your symptoms are not consistent with such mechanisms.
