6 COVID-19 symptoms to watch out for in 2025

A dry or scratchy throat is among the first symptoms seen in 2025 COVID cases. It may be mild but persistent, especially when swallowing or speaking for long.

Many infected individuals report unusual tiredness. Even simple tasks feel draining, and rest doesn¡¯t help much. This symptom may linger for days, even with mild infection.

A light but constant cough, usually dry, is common. It may worsen at night or during talking and often comes without heavy chest congestion or mucus.

Low-grade fever or mild hyperthermia is another key sign. It may fluctuate throughout the day, often accompanied by body chills or a general sense of warmth.

Muscle pain or body aches, especially in the back and legs, have been frequently reported. This symptom may be misread as general tiredness or stress-related discomfort.

Some cases show nausea or mild gastrointestinal problems like bloating or loose motions. These are less common but still considered part of the 2025 symptom pattern.
