Several studies have suggested that pink eyes, gastronomical conditions, and hearing impairment are the new symptoms and it should not be taken lightly.
New COVID-19 symptoms
According to doctors in Gujarat, 40% of COVID-19 patients visited them with a complaint of diarrhea, body pain, stomach pain, and vomiting.
A study done in China has revealed that pink eye or conjunctivitis is a sign of COVID-19 infection. People can develop redness, swelling and the eye becomes watery. 12 people who got infected with a new strain showed this symptom.
If you have observed ringing sound or some kind of hearing impairment in the recent past, then that could be a sign of COVID-19. A study published in the International Journal of Audiology said that the COVID-19 infection can lead to auditory problems.
The researchers found 56 studies that identified an association between COVID-19 and auditory and vestibular problems. They pooled data from 24 of the studies to estimate that the prevalence of hearing loss was 7.6%.
As per doctors, many gastrointestinal complaints are also coming in. A new study says that diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, nausea, and pain are signs of coronavirus. If you are facing any digestive discomfort, you must get yourself tested.
