These patients, also called {\textquotedblleft}long-haulers,{\textquotedblright} most commonly report protracted symptoms of fatigue, cough, dyspnea, chest tightness, difficulty concentrating, arthralgia, olfactory dysfunction, and headache. While age, comorbid medical conditions, and COVID-19 severity are suspected risk factors for PASC, young and previously healthy individuals with mild COVID-19 are also at risk. Recognition of symptoms, evaluation, supportive treatment, and attention to medical comorbidities are the cornerstones of medical management.}, issn = {0891-1150}, URL = {https://www.ccjm.org/content/early/2021/09/30/ccjm.88a.21010-up}, eprint = {https://www.ccjm.org/content/early/2021/09/30/ccjm.88a.21010-up.full.pdf}, journal = {Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine} }
