The team examined nearly 100 children and found that dizziness (67 per cent), fatigue (25 per cent), and body pain (23 per cent) were the common symptoms, which used to worsen while standing but improved when lying down.
While Covid-19 did not cause much harm to children, yet those affected are likely to suffer from Long Covid which is affecting their daily life with dizziness, fatigue and brain fog, according to a study.
The study from the Kennedy Krieger Institute, in the US, showed that the majority of children with Long Covid are likely to experience orthostatic intolerance (OI) - a condition that causes the body to struggle with regulating blood pressure and heart rate when standing up.
As a result, children often feel dizzy, lightheaded, fatigued, and may experience "brain fog" or cognitive difficulties.
