  1. How Physiotherapy Helps Covid-19 Patients Recover From Breathing Problems? Covid-19 is a dangerous and highly contagious virus that infects the respiratory system of the patient. Some patients will report no symptoms, which is known as being asymptomatic. However, other patients may become very ill and may even die as a result of the virus.

  2. Severe Covid-19 may cause shortness of breath. The patient may struggle to breathe and may require oxygen in order to survive. Covid-19 can drastically affect the quality of life of the affected individual. If you or someone you love is currently dealing with Covid-19 then chest physiotherapy and breathing exercises can be used as a form of adjuvant therapy. Covid-19 patients can benefit greatly from physiotherapy if they wish to accelerate the recovery process and treat their breathing problems.

  3. Here, we will focus on how physiotherapy can be used in order to help Covid-19 patients recover from their breathing problems. How does Covid-19 cause shortness of breath? Some patients may feel out of breath all the time. Others describe their shortness of breath as having trouble taking breaths that are deep or satisfying. In very severe cases the patient may continually struggle or gasp in order to catch their breath. Some patients report having tightness in their chest. The shortness of breath symptom can develop fast and can take as little as 2 days in some cases. In other cases, it may take up to 2 weeks for the shortness of breath to develop.

  4. According to recent research, the average onset of breathing problems develops roughly 5 days after the initialCovid-19 symptoms develop, which may include headaches, fever, sore throat, chills, and coughing. Some patients with Covid-19 may develop Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). In order for ARDS to develop the virus must penetrate the patient’s lower respiratory tract. When this happens the lungs become damaged and the patient becomes very ill. Organs become deprived of oxygen and begin to suffer severe damage. The body attempts to repair the damage by triggering an inflammatory response. Unfortunately, the inflammatory response serves to further damage the patient’s organs.

  5. ARDS is very dangerous and usually requires hospitalization in the intensive care unit. The patient may need mechanical or artificial ventilation in order to breathe. In the past, ARDS was linked to bacterial pneumonia and sepsis. Today, Covid-19 and variants of the deadly virus have also been linked to ARDS.
