By now we all know that one of the biggest problems caused by the Covid-19 is the fact that the symptoms of the disease are very common, and could also indicate other ailments. When fever, joint pain, cough and fatigue occur, it could be Covid, but it could also be a simple flu or a minor temporary illness.
Fortunately though, now that we know more about the virus, scientists have found that Covid symptoms appear in a specific order, which helps distinguish the disease from a simple flu or from diseases caused by other coronaviruses. The order in which Covid symptoms appear has been discovered, here’s what to watch out for.
Covid symptoms appear in a specific order
Scientists from the University of Southern California, have found that the symptoms of Covid tend to always present themselves in a very specific order. This is a great help in distinguishing them from the symptoms of other diseases or a flu. Scientists have discovered the order in which Covid symptoms appear, here’s what to watch out for.
According to scientists from the University of Southern California’s Khun Lab, this is the specific order in which the symptoms of Covid appear:
a) fever;
b) cough and muscle aches;
c) nausea, and possible episodes of vomiting;
d) intestinal disorders and diarrhea.
According to Khun Lab scientists, it is the order in which nausea and intestinal disorders appear that is particularly typical of Covid. Covid causes nausea first, and intestinal disorders only later. In other diseases caused by other coronaviruses, such as SARS and MERS, the opposite happens.
Always seek medical attention if in doubt
This discovery is very useful not only to doctors who have to diagnose the disease, but also to ordinary citizens. Many of us may be wondering how to distinguish a possible Covid infection, another disease or a simple flu. Today we have more tools. Of course, an official diagnosis must always be made by a doctor, and we must consult a professional in case of doubts or suspicious symptoms.
