 Attention to neck pain after Covid-19


Saying that neck pain is very common in patients with Covid-19 disease, Radiology and Interventional Radiology Specialist Prof. Dr. Onur Sıldıroğlu said, “This pain is especially seen in the front of the neck. In ultrasonography performed to investigate this pain, we find that the pain is concentrated on the thyroid gland in most people. In ultrasonography, we observe that the thyroid gland is darker than normal and its structure is deteriorated. This condition is called viral thyroiditis. "We can say that it is a thyroid inflammation caused by coronavirus."
