Is one of the corona virus signs a foot injury in children? This question has been debated in the scientific world over the past three months since the start of appearing in Spain and other countries for evidence of child leg injuries.



What distinguished these children was the fact that, beyond these lesions, no other symptoms appeared, nor were there any respiratory or fever problems, the major symptoms of the corona. In light of this, a number of hypotheses have been made and several studies have been done to find out whether this is a rare corona symptom. Is it a different side effect or is it a coincidence?

The main assumption of the toes with the lesions was that it was a physical rash as a result of the virus. In the world of medicine and research, there is ample evidence of rashes and lesions that occur following viral diseases, and in the case of the corona virus, reports have been received of adults and young people who developed physical rashes as part of the disease.

In such a case, the rash is the result of an infectious infection caused by the virus as a result of the virus and therefore it is evidence of its presence in the child who comes with the lesions that have been called 'Corona toes'. However, studies done in Spain and Belgium among all children who came with the symptom have not shown that they have the virus or antibodies in their bodies. In other words, the studies showed that the subjects did not have any disease at all. At this point, it is argued that the prolonged stay in the house, changing the way of walking or reducing hygiene following the closure are what caused the lesions and their connection to the corona is only causal.

But the reality in the world of research is not so simple. A new sciencedaily study found a correlation between the corona virus and the corona toe phenomenon, although the virus was apparently not found in the blood of these children. It turns out that although in the blood of the children the virus was not found, it did appear in biopsies done in the skin of these children.

The virus was detected in the sweat glands of the feet and blood cells found in the skin right in the tissue of the endothelial cells that build up the inside of the skin. It also showed an in-depth scanning of an electoral macroscope. The importance of the findings is that endothelial cells also cover the arteries and veins in the rest of the body and the various lymphatic systems and therefore injury to them explains other symptoms that have been discovered in corona patients.
