Managing Long-Term Effects of COVID-19 with Expert Care
COVID-19 is a viral infection that primarily affects the respiratory system but can impact multiple organs. While many recover fully, some individuals experience lingering or delayed complications, especially involving the lungs. These complications may include inflammation, scarring, or reduced lung function, which can cause ongoing symptoms weeks or months after the initial infection.
Symptoms to Watch For
Post-COVID lung complications can present as:
- Persistent shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- Chronic cough
- Fatigue and decreased exercise tolerance
- Chest discomfort or tightness

Our evaluation includes:
- Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs): Measure lung capacity and airflow.
- Chest Imaging (X-ray or CT scan): Detect lung inflammation or scarring.
