Long COVID

Evidence-based information to help you understand your condition.

Long COVID refers to a range of symptoms that persist for weeks or months after the initial COVID-19 infection has cleared. Many people experience respiratory symptoms as part of long COVID.

Common respiratory symptoms include ongoing breathlessness, persistent cough, chest pain, and fatigue. These symptoms can significantly impact daily functioning and quality of life.

If you have long COVID affecting your lungs, specialist assessment can help identify the cause of your symptoms and develop a tailored management plan to support your recovery.
