Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The Covid-19 pandemic has been going on for more than two years in the world. Nevertheless, there are still many things about the corona virus that are surprising and unexpected, including about the early symptoms of transmission.
Not just cough and fever, however, there are also a number of other symptoms that rarely occur. Even though it doesn’t happen often, it doesn’t mean we’re caught off guard.
Here’s a list of rare Covid-19 symptoms:
Itching
Itching accompanied by spots or a rash on the skin is a rare early symptom of Covid-19 transmission. Not only itching, red spots also provide a burning sensation as an immune response to the nervous system.
eye infection
According to a report by the American Academy of Ophthalmology, some patients also experience red eyes as a symptom of Covid-19. However, there is no need to worry because not all red eye conditions are a symptom of Covid-19.
Stomach ache
Abdominal pain is also referred to as one of the early symptoms of Covid-19 in addition to coughs and colds. Infection due to the corona virus causes patients to have diarrhea and experience vomiting.
Muscle ache
Some patients also show symptoms of muscle pain. This is due to the release of cytokine chemicals into the body in response to infection.
Diarrhea
Diarrhea is also one of the things to watch out for as a rare symptom of COVID-19, especially for the Omicron variant. It was reported that a number of Omicron UK Covid-19 patients had problems with severe diarrhea symptoms that appeared. The Omicron Covid-19 case since it was first discovered did not trigger the same Covid-19 symptoms as the previous infection.
Previous Covid-19 infections were easier to identify because they generally had typical symptoms of a continuous dry cough, fever, and loss of sense of taste and smell. Meanwhile, the majority of Omicron Covid-19 patients complain of flu-like symptoms or the common cold.
