Most people with COVID-19 feel better within a few days or weeks of their first symptoms and make a full recovery within 12 weeks. For some people, symptoms can last longer. This is called long COVID or post COVID-19 syndrome. Long COVID is a new condition which is still being studied.
If you have had symptoms of Covid-19 for four weeks or more you should contact your GP. For urgent problems, use NHS111.
More information on symptoms, tests, recovery and support is avaiable on the NHS website.
