COVID-19 Associated With Higher Risk Of Neuropathy, Says Researcher

As per researchers, people who were infected with Covid-19 are likely to report pain, numbness, or tingling in their hands and feet in comparison to those who were tested negative against the virus. However, the findings of the study were published in the journal 'Pain'. "Several viral infections, such as HIV and shingles, are associated with peripheral neuropathy because viruses can damage nerves,'' stated a researcher from Washington University.
