Therapist Andrei Kondrakhin, a Russian doctor of medical sciences, spoke about one of the main causes of re-infection with the coronavirus. He said this in an interview with Vechernaya Moscow. According to him, most of this happens when COVID-19 is not completely cured. "If you stop therapy too early, the disease can really return.
In addition, many of our patients prefer to leave the hospital as soon as possible and stop taking medication as soon as the symptoms go away, ”he said. To reduce the risk of complications after discharge from the hospital, the doctor recommends a number of conditions, in particular, adherence to the requirements of the doctor's treatment at home: "There are some medicines that need to be taken for a month. It is very important to finish them to the end. The second point is to monitor the blood and remember to take a second test two weeks after discharge. Another important condition is not to get cold. " In addition, the therapist recommends that the body not be overloaded with physical activity, monitor blood pressure, reduce fatty, spicy, sweet and salty foods in the diet, and abstain from alcohol for at least a month.
