Recovering From Sepsis
Even after recovery, many people experience certain long-term side effects, such as fatigue and pain. In the first few days of recovery, some people also require assistance for certain activities, like walking, sitting up, and bathing. Some patients require rehabilitation programs such as physical therapy exercises, which often already begin during their hospital stay. It’s important to rest as much as possible, slowly increasing daily activities as your strength returns. It’s quite common for people recovering from sepsis to feel depressed, frustrated, and confused.
