The impact of ENT manifestation in COVID-19 patients

Abstract

The pandemic with the new coronavirus – SARS-CoV-2 – has caused extraordinary changes in our way of life. Infection with this virus has caused a huge number of diseases worldwide. After healing from this infection, many patients continued to show symptoms at a distance after the infection itself. SARS-CoV-2 virus infection is mainly manifested by symptoms related to the lower respiratory tract, such as fever, cough, dyspnea and chest pressure, which could rapidly evolve to acute respiratory distress syndrome (SARS). However, COVID-19 also causes various symptoms related to the upper respiratory tract, including nasal congestion, neck pain and olfactory dysfunction. We aim to review, analyze and compare small-looking research studies. Studies show what the changes in ENT are in COVID-19 pandemic disease, how these symptoms influence the course of the disease and how much immuno-depressed the patient this virus.it is found that this virus leaves a very precarious immune system and leaves serious consequences in terms of activating some pathologies and symptoms. We also intend to present an atypical case of a patient infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus that showed a multitude of ENT manifestations both during the acute state and after healing.
