Have you heard of these 4 unusual coronavirus symptoms? – SILive.com

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. By now, weve all heard about the most common symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19), but there are several unusual signs of the illness that no one seems to talk about.

While fatigue, sore throat, fever, body aches and cough are the most common symptoms of COVID and its subsequent variants, Dr. Thomas Gut, associate chair of medicine at Staten Island University Hospital, recently revealed to ETNT Health that there are four unusual symptoms that often signal the illness.

Other rare symptoms, such as loss of speech movement, conjunctivitis, discoloration of fingers or toes and rash, have been reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

People experiencing difficulty breathing or chest pain or pressure should seek immediate medical attention, the CDC advises.

COVID symptoms vary from person to person, based on where the virus attacks first, or causes the most inflammation, Gut told ETNT Health, a science and health-related news website headquartered in Brooklyn. This has a large role in why some symptoms are present for some individuals, yet are absent in other cases. Also, the variants of COVID have caused some interesting and relatively unique symptoms to each wave.

People experiencing flu-like symptoms that feel worse than a cold or flu should also seek medical attention, experts advise.

Those who are fully vaccinated and still get COVID should only feel minor symptoms, doctors say. Anything new or alarming should be evaluated by a doctor, Gut told ETNT Health.
