Every person in the world must be aware of the corona virus. The havoc caused by this virus 5 years ago had shaken people's soul. Restrictions were imposed in many countries of the world at the same time, people were locked in their homes for many months. There were millions of deaths and people also saw many changes in their way of living. There are still discussions about this virus. Delhi's 43-year-old Parminder Malhotra, who is a chronic and long-term patient of corona, is still facing the side-effects of the disease.

5 years have passed since the corona, but even today people keep talking about the covid-19 virus. In the year 2019, this virus spread its feet in the world, which came from China. However, in the end of the year 2018 and the beginning of January, this suicidal virus started wreaking havoc in China, gradually it spread its virus all over the world. Even today people are looking for the secret behind the arrival of this virus in the world. Delhi's Parminder Malhotra, who is 43 years old, is India's oldest and long-term patient suffering from corona. You will be surprised to know that even today he is facing many difficulties in living life due to corona. Even today he starts feeling breathless by the time he reaches his house in his building, which is on the third floor. He is not even able to breathe without an oxygen cylinder during Diwali. Let's know what is the reason for this happening to Parminder and what the doctor says about it.

Why is Parminder facing these problems?

Parminder, who used to be an electrical engineer and always did field work, has to run an electrical appliance shop today due to the poor health of his lungs. Actually, Parminder has got a serious lung infection due to the coronavirus. He had to rely on oxygen cylinders for almost 2 years. In the first year, he used the oxygen cylinder regularly, while in the second year he reduced the use of the cylinder, while during Diwali he again needed an oxygen cylinder. According to the Indian Express report, Parminder still has to go regularly to the AIIMS Covid clinic for his treatment.

What has happened to Parminder?

Dr Anant Mohan, Professor and HOD of Critical Care and Sleep Medicine, has seen Corona patients very closely, he has also done a research on Corona, in which serious patients have also been mentioned, Parminder was also included in his list. He says that it was surprising that Parminder, who did not even smoke, was always fit and used to do his daily chores easily, would suddenly have such a serious illness and for such a long time. Parminder also used to drink alcohol sometimes. Due to the corona virus, the scars and skin in his lungs had hardened. Due to swelling in his lungs, he used to feel difficulty in breathing. On Diwali or whenever the atmosphere of Delhi is bad, his problems can increase. The oxygen level of his body still goes below 80 at times, blood pumping is also affected when breathing in open air.

How is Parminder protecting himself?

Dr. Garima Srivastava, another senior doctor, says that she also followed Parminder's case closely. He should get regular checkups done to take care of his health. He should keep checking oxygen, BP and sugar regularly and do breathing exercises. Parminder and other patients like him should get vaccinated for pneumonia and change the medicine or dosage if needed.
