Covid and stomach related
I contracted covid 2 months back. I heard people saying covid affects any weak organ in your body. I had stomach ulcer around april. Is there a chance that covid had permanent affect on my stomach? Should i be worried?

If u are asymptomatic then no need to worry. COVid specifically doesn't cause gastric ulcers. Prolonged hospital stay can cause gastric ulcers.
