In the critical stage of covid, the brain can suffer major damage. Gray matter in the brain can be reduced! A team from Hyderabad has created a stir over the demands of neurologists. However, the neurologists have also given advice on how to avoid the neurological problems created after corona.
Doctors in Hyderabad claim that the size of the gray matter in the brain can be reduced if the covid takes a serious shape. However, this is not the case with moderate to mild infections of the covid. But neurologists say that among those suffering from covid, those whose condition is critical, those who have to be hospitalized, and even those who are in mechanical ventilation, have neurological problems. At the same time, the 'gray matter' in the brain is decreasing. Note that this ‘gray matter’ helps the brain process information.
Neurologists claim that in cases where there is a need for oxygen to be kept in the ventilation support, the ‘gray matter’ of the fontal lobe of the affected brain is gradually reduced. Citing the results of an international study in this regard, senior consultant neurosurgeon of Sunshine Hospitals in Gachibowli, Dr. P Ranganadham said, "We can see that covid has an effect in reducing the rate of 'gray matter' in important parts of the brain. This is especially true for those who have a fever, but not for those without symptoms. ”
His advice is that those who have neurological problems as a result of covid infection should follow the advice of the concerned doctors for at least six more months after recovering from covid. Although the doctor claims that in many cases, it is seen that many people are still suffering from neurological disorders at the time of discharge from the hospital, but it is still going on after six months.
