Is sweating and soreness a new type of pneumonia?
Sweating and aching all over your body is not necessarily a novel coronavirus infection. There are many causes of sweating and soreness, and in addition to the new coronavirus, it can also be caused by strenuous exercise, upper respiratory tract infection, etc.
First, it is a new coronavirus infection
1. Reason: The new coronavirus is contagious and can be transmitted through droplet transmission, contact transmission, etc. After being infected by the new coronavirus, patients will have symptoms of fever, fatigue, cough and other symptoms, and when the condition worsens, they will sweat and ache all over the body.
2. Treatment: If the new coronavirus infection is confirmed, it is necessary to go to the fever clinic of the hospital in time and isolate for treatment.
If you have mild symptoms, you can isolate yourself at home, pay attention to rest, strengthen nutritional support, and take drugs such as ibuprofen extended-release capsules as prescribed by your doctor to relieve symptoms. Critically ill patients may need to receive oxygen therapy or mechanical ventilation under the guidance of a doctor.
Second, it is not a novel coronavirus infection
1. Strenuous exercise: If you have recently exercised vigorously, it will cause the body to sweat a lot, which will lead to a lack of water in the body, and at this time, there will also be sweating and soreness. Generally, no special treatment is required, and appropriate rest can improve the discomfort symptoms;
2. Upper respiratory tract infection: usually related to bacterial and viral infections, when pathogens invade the body, it will stimulate the thermoregulatory center, and then increase the body's heat production and reduce heat dissipation, so the above phenomenon will occur.It is recommended to take daily measures to keep warm to avoid catching a cold, and at the same time, you can also soak your feet in hot water to promote blood circulation, which is conducive to relieving uncomfortable symptoms.
In addition, similar conditions may occur in cases such as tuberculosis infections, rheumatic immune diseases, and advanced tumors. It is not possible to determine whether there is a new coronavirus infection based on this manifestation alone, and a comprehensive analysis of epidemiological history and laboratory test results is required.
