Infection with novel coronavirus pneumonia may be more painful, with fever, malaise, and dry cough as the main manifestations, which appear most often and are relatively early. This is followed by a prolonged high fever, i.e., a high fever of about 40°C for more than 72 hours, which may be followed by respiratory distress and sore throat. After respiratory distress, there may be pain in the lungs, but it is not very clear. The systemic symptoms may be relatively heavy, including symptoms of dyspnea, poor mental status, poor sleep, dry cough, etc. There will also be pain in the lungs, and the continuous feeling will get worse and worse, and there may be pain and soreness, but the so-called pain cannot be used as a basis for diagnosis and is also a non-specific indicator. For confirming the diagnosis of specific novel coronavirus, it is still mainly done by RT-PCR or gene sequencing. Content source: Dr. You Lai
