Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of pain symptoms in outpatients with COVID-19 and to analyze the relationship between pain-related, psychological, and cognitive variables in patients with ongoing pain complaints after COVID-19. 79 people participated in the research. The focus was on completed demographics (such as age, height, and weight), pain-related (duration and intensity of pain), Modified Medical Research Council (MMRC) Dyspnea Score, and visual analogue scale (VAS) variables. Significant changes were found in some of the post-COVID symptoms after 3 months. From the 3rd month, the VAS pain scale score, EQ-5D-3L quality of life score, and VAS score obtained from EQ-5D-3L quality of life scale, sitting scores decreased compared to the first measurements. Muscle strength, moderate activity, walking, and total scores increased from the third month. We suggest physical pain and inactivity symptoms in patients with COVID regressed in the 3rd month.
