Welcome. Long COVID can involve diverse, continuing or recurring problems after SARS-CoV-2 infection. CDC describes a condition present for at least three months; the NHS page describes symptoms lasting longer than twelve weeks. These are attributed descriptions, not a rule to postpone care for new or worsening symptoms. [L1] [L5]

Keep the essential context with the question

For adults in England, NHS says call 999 or go to A&E immediately for severe breathing difficulty such as gasping, choking or inability to get words out; a tight or heavy chest; pain spreading to an arm, the back, neck or jaw; very pale, blue or grey lips or skin; OR sudden confusion. Colour changes may be easier to see on the palms on brown or black skin. Do not drive to A&E. [B]

England NHS also says call 999 for sudden chest pain or discomfort that does not go away; pain spreading to either arm, neck, jaw, stomach or back; OR chest pain AND sweating, sickness, lightheadedness or breathlessness. More breathlessness than usual needs NHS 111 advice; intermittent chest pain or quickly resolved pain that still worries you needs GP assessment. Elsewhere use local emergency or urgent services. Do not assume Long COVID is the cause. [CHEST] [B]

Some people with Long COVID experience post-exertional malaise (PEM): symptoms worsen after even minor physical or mental effort, typically twelve to forty-eight hours later, and may last days or weeks. Discuss that pattern with your team. The NHS advises talking to a GP or specialist before restarting exercise, using caution and stopping if symptoms occur. This page offers no fixed-increment exercise programme. [L4] [L5]

Ask your clinician or pharmacist about medicines for symptoms rather than choosing or changing a regimen from this page. NHS explicitly advises pharmacist input about painkillers. This introduction recommends no drug, supplement, device or procedure. [L5] [L4]

In England, urgent mental health help is available through NHS 111’s mental health option or an urgent GP appointment. Call 999 or go to A&E now if life is at risk OR you cannot keep yourself or someone else safe. Elsewhere use local crisis or emergency services. Support belongs alongside physical care. [MH]
