The COVID-19 virus could have been present for a lot longer than we imagined. As a result, people may have been infected with the virus and recovered without realizing it. There are certain clear signals that you might be one of them.
In the winter, it’s pretty uncommon to catch a cold. However, if you caught a cold in late 2019 or early 2020, it’s possible that it was COVID-19.
One way to tell the difference is that COVID can persist for up to two weeks, although a cold usually only lasts a few days. COVID, unlike a cold, might have given you a fever and made it difficult to breathe.
Breathing Problems
Feeling like you can’t breathe is a common symptom of COVID-19. This isn’t often a symptom of a cold or the flu. COVID-19 can cause bronchitis, which you may have thought you had. It may have been anxiety or a panic attack. Shortness of breath with COVID, on the other hand, lasts longer than a panic episode. It’s also accompanied by flu-like symptoms.
Cough that lasts a long time
If you experienced a dry cough that didn’t go away after a long time, it could have been a sign of COVID-19. It wouldn’t have been the same as a cough brought on by a cold. It would have started out moderately, but over the next 5 to 7 days, it would have gotten much worse.
Pain in the Eyes
We’ve been warned to wash our hands frequently and avoid touching our faces throughout the pandemic. COVID-19 can have an effect on your eyes, which is one of the reasons behind this. It’s possible that the infection caused conjunctivitis (pinkeye), watery eyes, or blurred vision.
Complications of the heart
COVID-19 can also have an effect on your heart. It can cause it to pound, flutter, or beat quickly. It’s possible that you felt a tightening in your chest. Even after the infection has left your body, all of these behaviors can occur. This type of episode can last up to 2 weeks in moderate cases and up to 6 weeks in more extreme situations.
