Are You Suffering From Chronic Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Symptoms?
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning occurs when CO gas is inhaled, preventing needed oxygen from reaching vital organs and tissues. Annually, more than 10,000 Americans thousands seek treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning, which can be life-threatening without prompt care.
Immediate treatment, typically through hyperbaric oxygen therapy, is crucial to restore oxygen flow and prevent long-term damage. However, many patients experience debilitating chronic effects despite acute treatment, often because of delayed intervention.
Delayed symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can include:
Persistent headaches
– Dizziness and balance problems
– Cognitive impairment and memory loss
– Mood changes, irritability or depression
– Chronic fatigue
– Cardiovascular and respiratory issues
– Visual disturbances
– Motor coordination difficulties
While there’s no guaranteed cure for carbon monoxide poisoning, the Aviv Medical Program offers advanced therapies to address these chronic concerns. Our approach aims to improve the quality of life for individuals who suffer from chronic CO poisoning.
If you or a loved one are living with any of the above concerns after carbon monoxide poisoning, Aviv Clinics may be able to help.

FAQ: Treatment for Chronic Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
What’s the difference between acute vs. chronic carbon monoxide poisoning?
Acute carbon monoxide poisoning occurs immediately after exposure, resulting in symptoms like headache, dizziness, confusion, or loss of consciousness. Chronic carbon monoxide poisoning results from extended exposure or delayed treatment, resulting in persistent symptoms like cognitive disturbances and trouble with coordination. The long-term effects of carbon monoxide poisoning may last for weeks, months, and even years after exposure.
Both types of poisoning are serious and require different treatment approaches.
Can you cure carbon monoxide poisoning?
Carbon monoxide poisoning can be treated effectively, especially if promptly addressed. Oxygen therapy is the primary treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning, which helps quickly replace CO in the blood with oxygen. Many people recover fully, but some experience lasting or delayed symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. Early intervention is vital for the best outcome.
When should you seek treatment for chronic carbon monoxide poisoning?
Seek additional medical treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning if you experience persistent symptoms like headaches, cognitive issues, mood changes, or trouble with coordination and balance after known CO exposure. Treatment for chronic CO poisoning differs from acute cases, so it’s important to seek additional care for these symptoms even if you received initial treatment.
How long is treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning in chronic cases?
Treatment duration for CO poisoning varies based on the severity of your exposure and the overall response to therapy. Treatment usually ranges from several weeks to a few months. It can be a gradual process with differing timelines among individuals. Medical treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning spans 12 weeks at Aviv Clinics, with recommended post-treatment measures following the program.
