Obviously, if it becomes itchy or painful or inflamed or if it starts to look infected, then you definitely need to have it checked out by a GP.

But hopefully
podcast-host
These really simple steps here will help you.
podcast-host
And uh yeah, unfortunately you may find it is worse in the coming winter months.

Well, on to our next question from Alice who says, Hey Liz, my mother is 80.
podcast-host
She's been living with long COVID for several years.
podcast-host
She recently mentioned hearing about nicotine patches that can be used to help long COVID symptoms.
podcast-host
Is there any credible evidence that nicotine patches can improve fatigue and brain fog or other long COVID symptoms?
podcast-host
What is the current medical understanding of why they might help?
podcast-host
What are the risks for older adults and is this something that should only be tried under medical supervision?
podcast-host
Thank you from Alice.
podcast-host
Yeah, great questions.
podcast-host
And I like the uh the caveats at the end there because I think that's really important that whenever we're trying something, we have to bear in mind somebody's age and stage in life, because an older adult may well be under all kinds of polypharmacy medications where they're taking multiple medications for different things that have been prescribed over the years, that have built up.
podcast-host
And of course these
podcast-host
Can all A interact with each other and B interact with any other potentially helpful intervention.
podcast-host
So really important that we flag that.
podcast-host
So nicotine patches, yeah, they are getting quite a lot of attention within the long COVID community.
podcast-host
I would say the science is still at a very early stage.
podcast-host
There's lots of theories.
podcast-host
I know if you follow the biohacker Dave Asprey, you'll hear him talk a lot about nicotine patches or nicotine lozenges.
