A new symptom of Long Covid has been identified by medical experts after a man began to notice his legs changing colour after he stood up.
The 33-year-old, who contracted coronavirus twice in the space of a year and a half, found that his legs were turning from white to purple just 10 minutes after going from sitting to standing.
As well as the rapid colour change, he'd also reported his legs feeling "progressively feel heavy, tingly, itchy, and become dusky in colour" every time he stood up over the past six months.
The man also noted that his feet would break out in a rash, but these symptoms would go away if he lay down.
Images show the man's legs turning red after just two minutes of standing before changing to a deeper purple colour as time went on.
Discussed in this week's edition of the medical journal The Lancet, the piece added that the man "had a mild SARS-CoV-2 infection, confirmed by PCR, 18 months before" he was first seen and had "a suspected further SARS-CoV-2 infection six months later.
He had been diagnosed with post-COVID-19 condition (also known as long COVID) in a specialist clinic three months before we saw him reporting a 12-month history of disabling and delayed post-exertional exhaustion, disproportionate to the effort made; he also reported muscular pain, sleep disturbance, visual difficulties, sexual dysfunction, and brain fog. The patient had been diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome two months before we saw him, by a cardiologist".
This condition, which is known as acrocyanosis, can appear when a person is suffering from Long Covid - but the man hadn't experienced it before catching coronavirus, which experts described as "striking".

Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent Roman Polanski’s Italian producer Luca Barbareschi got emotional at the press conference for “The Palace,” a black comedy that is the director’s new work and premieres at the Venice Film Festival today. “It’s been very difficult to make this film,” said Barbareschi, a multi-hyphenate who also stars in “The Palace.” “Polanski is not easy [to finance]” he added, noting that “there is a hole – France – in the middle of this film,” since French companies refused to participate in its production. Polanski’s previous film, “An Officer and a Spy,” a period drama about the Dreyfus affair, scooped the Grand Jury Prize at Venice, won best director at the Cesar Awards and was one of the highest grossing French films of 2019.
