USA TODAY could not confirm evidence that sores appearing on the feet of young COVID-19 patients were caused by the disease.
The claim: Chicken-pox-like sores, particularly on the feet of young COVID-19 patients, are a new coronavirus symptom When"Inside Edition" reported a new foot-sore symptom of COVID-19 on April 16, the claim was quickly met with skepticism.
"Doctors initially thought they were spider bites or some unrelated condition, but it turns out they're probably from blood vessels blocked-off from the virus," Oz said."And if you see them, that's one of the signs that you may actually have COVID-19." “This is a manifestation that occurs early on in the disease, meaning you have this first, then you progress,” Lautenbach said. “Sometimes this might be your first clue that they have COVID when they don’t have any other symptoms.”
COVID-19 can cause other skin symptomsThe American Academy of Dermatology has also created a COVID-19 registry to track incidents of COVID-19 cases involving skin conditions and preexisting conditions. About 130 cases have been submitted to the registry, so far, according AAD President Dr. Bruce H. Thiers.
He described a 67-year-old COVID-19 patient whose first symptoms resembled the common cold. A week later, the patient developed a rash on his inner-thigh and began urinating blood. Though both conditions went away within 24 hours, the patient later tested positive. Medical experts disagree on the causeThe World Health Organization or the Centers for Disease Control have yet to recognize these foot sores as a symptom of COVID-19. Both organizations continue to warn the public of symptoms including fever, dry cough, difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, chills, muscle aches, headache, sore throat, or loss of taste and smell.
