Orange Discoloration
Other patients witnessed orange discoloration on their nail tips, 112 days after being tested positive. There wasn’t any treatment given and the discoloration hadn’t disappeared even after a month.
For example, there has been a case of an 89-year-old woman who was living in a nursing home. Being infected with the virus, she presented symptoms like cough and asthenia.
After 16 weeks from this event, she started to notice orange discolorations at the end of the nail beds of her fingers. After a blood test, she discovered the presence of IgG against coronavirus, but also ferropenic anemia. As an effect of the post-Covid-19 syndrome, she developed sarcopenia.
If you see something odd happening with your nails, don’t ignore the signs!
