The main symptom of fatigue is exhaustion with physical or mental activity. A person does not feel refreshed after resting or sleeping.
It might also be hard for them to carry out their daily activities, including work, household chores, and caring for others.
The symptoms of fatigue may be physical, mental, or emotional.
Common symptoms associated with fatigue can include:
aching or sore muscles
apathy and a lack of motivation
daytime drowsiness
difficulty concentrating or learning new tasks
gastrointestinal problems, such as bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, or diarrhea
headache
irritability or moodiness
slowed response time
vision problems, such as blurriness
Symptoms tend to get worse after exertion. They may appear a few hours after activity or exercise, or possibly on the next day
