Will the Coronavirus Affect Bones & Joints?

During the pandemic, patients have been asking us a lot about COIVD-19. In fact, many patients are wondering will the Coronavirus affect bones and joints? We don’t really know much about this strand. However, we do know that this virus mimics the typical flu or viral infection.

These symptoms of COVID-19 vary from person to person. However, muscle aches in the arm, legs, or back are more common. Moreso, developing spontaneously without injury. This pain is most often in the muscles over the joints. Although if you have arthritis in the arm or leg, the virus can intensify the symptom.

Pain from the Symptoms of COVID-19

The pain from these symptoms can be debilitating. However, the COVID-19 isn’t known to cause any permanent bone and joint damage. Instead, the virus can lead to permanent organ damage, including damage to the kidney and lungs.

Most people take anti-inflammatory medicine to help treat the pain that COVID-19 symptoms causes. An anti-inflammatory can not only help with pain-relief but also if a fever occurs from the virus. It is wise to speak to a doctor about symptoms before taking any medicine, however.

Musculoskeletal pain often results from bursitis, tendinitis, or gout, which also causes inflammation. Therefore, inflammatory medication will be helpful. Inflammatory conditions such as bursitis can lead to body pain. Muscle aches can be a side effect of anti-inflammatories, though.

What if the Coronavirus Affect my Bones & Joints

So, in conclusion, the Coronavirus can affect bones and joints. Achy bones and joints after the coronavirus? We can help! Call us today at 888-409-8006, for a top orthopedic specialist in the South Florida area.
