This condition primarily reflects severe physical debilitation, likely due to compromised immune function and reduced resistance. Currently, the main recommendation is to ensure adequate nutritional intake—aiming for a varied diet rich in high-protein foods. Additionally, prioritize sufficient rest and engage in appropriate physical activity. As your physical strength gradually recovers, these symptoms will also progressively improve.
