Long COVID and children.
Parents, please take getting COVID seriously for yourselves and children still, even if symptoms are mild or non existent -as the study shows the effects of getting COVID on children.
At Iyashi Wellness, we have safe and very effective herbal antivirals children (and adults) can take that help to prevent the COVID virus from entrenching deeper into the systems that eventually cause Long Covid. We have been successfully treating COVID patients since 2020, before vaccines and pharmaceutical antivirals were available, so we have a lot of experience in this arena.
Also, if you or your child develops Long COVID, the sooner you can get on herbs and supplements that reduce inflammation, clear phlegm, nourish internal systems, clean the blood and treat the remnants of the virus response, we can start helping you feel better from Long COVID. Letting Long COVID entrench, like any chronic condition, makes it harder and longer to get results even with herbs.
As children continue to come in to Iyashi Wellness for different reasons, often times, we find during the intake process they had COVID and we can see a clear line of symptom aggravation or initiation of symptom(s) post COVID. With treatment, these kids are getting better in the symptoms that they came in for (anxiety, asthma, fatigue, digestive disruption, emotional disregulation, tics, PANS/PANDAS, seizures, etc.) because we are treating both the post covid viral response and these imbalances causing the outward symptoms they're coming in for.
All the pediatric herbal medicines prescribed at Iyashi Wellness are tested and manufactured in the US going through GMP certification and 3rd party testing so it's very safe - and effective.
PS. With the fires in LA, our lungs are going to be hit big time, and our immune system thus compromised. Infection rates and the severity of infection is going to increase because of this compromise. Please protect your lungs by masking with an N95 mask outdoors, use a HEPA grade air purifier at home/office (I can offer you a medical grade HEPA air purifier - contact the office at [email protected] for more info) with a humidifier to protect your mucous membranes.
This study looked at 84 children aged 6–16.
They received assessments within 6 months after being tested positive for COVID-19.
Their parents reported observations about their children 3 months before SARS-CoV-2 infection on a wide range of psychopathologies and social functional impairments.
The results showed that the COVID group in the post-COVID condition had more severe symptoms:
🔺inattention
🔺hyperactivity-impulsivity
🔺opposition
🔺a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems
🔺poor school functions, school attitude, social interaction
🔺school behavioral problems
🔺interaction problems with their parents.
Compared with the pre-COVID condition, the COVID group had greater severity of:
🔺inattention and somatic complaints
🔺thought problems
🔺internalising problems
🔺poor school functions
🔺interaction problems with their parents in the post-COVID condition.
The study concludes that it identified a significant link between SARS-CoV-2 infection and various post-COVID mental health sequelae in children, including behavioral/emotional and social adjustment challenges.
The authors underline the importance of raising awareness about ongoing post-COVID mental health concerns in children.
