Allergist-immunologist Vladimir Bolibok believes that the "omicron" strain of coronavirus requires no less serious treatment than previous versions of the infection.

“The mild form of coronavirus infection, which Omicron most often leads to, does not imply that everything will be easy, smooth and pass without any complications,” he said on Sputnik radio.

According to the specialist, "omicron" causes serious changes in the inner lining of blood vessels and disorders of the blood coagulation system. In this case, signs of violations can occur only after a while after the illness.

“We must remember that coronavirus is a threat of thrombosis. The person, the more likely the development of thrombosis, because with age, blood clotting increases, the condition of the arteries and veins is not very good, and the coronavirus is superimposed on this, ”Bolibok emphasized.

Signs of thrombosis are sudden pain in the arms or legs, muscle cramps, swelling in the legs, the appearance of a venous network, and a cough that suddenly appeared after the illness may indicate pulmonary embolism. In addition, circulatory disorders after coronavirus can lead to retinal thrombosis.
