Abstract
It's been widely reported that the new coronavirus has adverse effects on the musculoskeletal system. The primary goal of this study is to establish the frequency of musculoskeletal complaintswith extended COVID syndrome. This retrospective cohort research examined the occurrence of musculoskeletal problems in patients with chronic COVID-19 syndrome. About 100 COVID-19patients tested positive, of which 27 (27.0%) had a minimum of one orthopedic impairment. Patients with orthopedic conditions were significantly younger than those without (53.7 years vs. 58.1 years, p = 0.003), and their incidence was significantly higher in obese than non-obese patients (p = 0.022). Furthermore, patients with diabetes had significantly more orthopedic symptoms than those with cardiac or pulmonary complications. According to our research, patients who are obese or diabetic have a higher probability of experiencing musculoskeletal symptoms when infected with COVID-19. Additionally, analysis is needed to determine whether these orthopedic conditions persist during active disease and post-infection.
