NAGPUR: Many moderate to severe Covid recovered patients are now returning with complaints of severe pain in chest, stomach and limbs, mainly due to blood clotting or thrombosis. Doctors said although the incidence is very rare among home isolated cases, some young patients — who were mild cases — too are reporting thrombosis in different parts of the body.
Consultant interventional cardiologist Dr Shoeb Nadeem said last week he treated a rare case of renal clotting in a Covid recovered 41-year-old man.
“These rare patients are otherwise healthy and don’t have any comorbidity. The incidence is more in diabetic and cardiac patients. Usually, such cases surface either during hospitalization or within one month of discharge,” Dr Nadeem said.
