Your Feet May Reveal If You Have Coronavirus, New Research Suggests

We recently told you about a strange early symptom of COVID-19.
Patients were reporting that they had lost their sense of smell. 

Since we brought you that article, loss of sense of smell has
become one of the widely accepted symptoms that doctors use to diagnose
coronavirus. 

Now, COVID-19 patients are reporting another bizarre, possible
early warning sign: foot sores. Doctors in
Spain, Italy, and France have noted patients with purple, chicken pox-like lesions
on their toes.

AAs many as 20% of coronavirus patients in Italy’s
Manzoni hospital had the symptom. Researchers found that 88 patients there
displayed these foot sores. Younger patients are most likely to have them.

Spain’s General Council of Official Colleges of
Podiatrists opened a registry for medical professionals to report the foot
lesions. “The Podiatrists Council urges its colleges and members to remain
alert because this can be a sign” of COVID-19.[i]

One of the first cases was reported by the
International Federation of Podiatrists.

Doctors initially thought a 13-year-old Italian
boy had bites from a brown recluse spider. But two days later, he developed
fever, muscle pain, and a headache.

Soon after, photos of sores on the feet of
COVID-19 patients began appearing on dermatologists’ websites and in social
media. Suspicious doctors then took a closer look at the boy’s family.

They found that his mother and sister had COVID-19
symptoms before the boy’s lesions appeared.

Dr. Daniel Gordon, a general practitioner with
Britain’s National Health Service, said it’s not surprising that COVID-19
causes skin symptoms.

“Many viruses cause skin rashes and marks,” he said.[ii]

Dr. Randy Jacobs is an assistant clinical
professor of dermatology at the University of California. He said COVID-19 can cause
clotting in small blood vessels.

Surprising
COVID-19 Symptoms Are Appearing

Other emerging coronavirus symptoms are being
reported by scientists.

A study in China found 36% of COVID-19 patients
had neurological issues such as headaches, dizziness, and nerve pain. If their
illness became more severe, they had even worse neurological ailments:
seizures, confusion, and stroke.[iii]

This may be because the virus latched onto ACE2
receptors. They line your respiratory tracts. Coronavirus latches onto them to
get into the lungs. But ACE2 receptors also are found in other parts of the
body, including the nervous system.

Before the outbreak, few people would have associated loss of
smell, possible foot sores, or nerve pain with a respiratory infection like
coronavirus. If you have any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Isolate yourself
immediately from others in your home. 

And get a coronavirus test as soon as you can. Fast action
could save your life or that of a loved one.
