Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Although research shows that pain is more frequent during COVID-19 infection, little is known about the characterization of pain and factors that influence its permanence after infection. Therefore, the objective of this study was to describe the clinical profile of pain in post-COVID-19 patients.
CONTENTS: This is a systematic review conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations. Articles were searched from November 2021 to November 2022 in the Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane and PsycINFO databases. Five observational studies were included for qualitative synthesis. There was an increase in the intensity of pain in all regions of the body during the infection when compared to the pre-infection state, remaining after the infection. The most reported post-COVID-19 pains are: neuropathic pain, generalized pain and pain in the cervical region. The average duration of post-COVID-19 pain was six months.
CONCLUSION: There is persistence of pain after infection with the new coronavirus, with the presence of “new pain” and “new chronic pain”, and the worsening of pain in specific groups that had COVID-19.

Resumo
JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: Embora as pesquisas evidenciem o quadro álgico mais frequente durante a infecção da COVID-19, pouco se sabe sobre a caracterização da dor e fatores que influenciam sua permanência após a infecção. Portanto, o objetivo deste estudo foi descrever o perfil clínico de dor em pacientes pós-COVID-19.
CONTEÚDO: Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática conduzida conforme as recomendações Preferred Reporting Items for Sistematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Os artigos foram pesquisados no período de novembro de 2021 a novembro de 2022, no banco de dados Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane e PsycINFO. Foram incluídos cinco estudos observacionais para síntese qualitativa. Evidenciou-se um aumento da intensidade da dor em todas as regiões do corpo durante a infecção quando comparado com o estado pré-infecção, mantendo-se após a infecção. As dores mais relatadas pós-COVID-19 foram dor neuropática, dor generalizada e dor na região cervical. A média de tempo da dor no pós-COVID-19 foi de seis meses.
CONCLUSÃO: Há persistência da dor após infecção pelo novo coronavírus, com a presença de “dor nova” e “dor crônica nova”, e a piora da dor em grupos específicos que tiveram COVID-19.
