COVID-19: Joint Pain as Symptom?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

Muscle or body ache is one of the common symptoms experienced by individuals with COVID-19. From a medical perspective, it is important to note that COVID-19 can indeed cause joint pain as well. While respiratory symptoms like cough and shortness of breath are commonly associated with the virus, joint pain has also been reported by some infected individuals.

Thanks
