The coronavirus has a number of symptoms, which include hives, cough, flu-like symptoms, muscle cramps, and many more, but one of the strangest that have been recorded is in China, where 2 doctors turned black after treatment.
42-year-old Dr. Yi Fan and 42-year-old Dr. Hu Weifeng were diagnosed with the novel coronavirus on January 18, 2020.
They became critically ill and had to spend over 30 days in the hospital so they could be cured.
As they went through treatment, the skin color of the 2 doctors turned black as their body fought against the virus.
Dr. Yi, a cardiologist in China, recovered from novel coronavirus after doctors placed him with a life-support machine for around 39 days.
Dr. Yi said that he is almost fully recovered from the deadly virus, however, there are problems.
Because he stayed in bed for too long, he has a hard time walking without any help.
He is capable of sitting up and talking, but when it comes to walking, he needs help.
During an interview with the press, Dr. Yi said:
“When I first gained consciousness, especially after I got to know about my condition, I felt scared. I had nightmares often.”
As part of his recovery, Dr. Yi had to go through counseling so he could fix his affected mental health and physical condition.
Dr. Hu, the colleague of Dr. Yi, had a harder time recovering from the deadly virus.
Dr. Li Shusheng, a doctor that treated Dr. Hu, said that the doctor’s mental health suffered greatly as a part of his fight with coronavirus.
Dr. Li explained why the skin color of the doctors changed.
The doctor said that the skin colors were affected as a result of the medication that they had used in their treatment.
Dr. Li did not tell which medicine was involved in their treatment.
Dr. Li said that the skin color of the 2 doctors will return back to their original form after the function of their liver improves.
