ABSTRACT
Objective. To describe COVID-19 influence on gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) exacerbation using clinical case. Main points. COVID-19 infection remains an urgent problem for modern medicine due to its high contagiousness and rapid dis-tribution among the working population. We presented a clinical case of a 49-year-old female patient with respiratory complaints and extraesophageal manifestations of GERD. Conclusion. This clinical case showed that clinicians should consider various mechanisms of respiratory symptoms, which becomes exceptionally relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic. The development of atypical symptoms in a patient of working age without concomitant pathology causes difficulties in early diagnosis and timely treatment, in contrast to comorbid elderly and senile patients. Several mechanisms led to an exacerbation of GERD with the development of wheezing. Therefore, a clinician should meticulously take a medical history, form a trusting relationship with a patient, detect and correct early signs of anxiety and depression with a multidisciplinary team.Copyright © 2021, Media Sphera Publishing Group.
