Abstract
The disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus is multi-organ and involves almost all organs and systems. Myalgias and arthralgias and, in particular, back pain are common symptoms of COVID-19 and can be observed both at the onset of the disease and in the postcovid period. The causes of muscle and joint damage include both systemic inflammation and direct viral injury. Traditionally, musculoskeletal pain is treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. However, using this drug class in patients with COVID-19 requires caution due to the presence of comorbid diseases and possible complications of viral infection. The review discusses clinical variants and pathophysiological mechanisms of joints and muscles damage in patients with COVID-19 and treatment tactics for patients with musculoskeletal pain.

Summary
Заболевание, вызванное вирусом SARS-CoV-2, является мультиорганным и вовлекает практически все органы и системы. Боли различной локализации (головная боль, боль в спине, миалгии, артралгии) могут наблюдаться как в остром периоде болезни, так и в постковидном периоде. Факторы риска развития скелетно-мышечной боли у пациентов, перенесших COVID-19, изучены крайне мало, однако имеются данные об ассоциации миалгии и артралгии с высоким индексом массы тела [1].
