10 Symptoms of Scurvy
Symptom #5: Fatigue
It can be pretty difficult to do much at all when you are low on energy. You can even make your best efforts but it is still difficult to get anything done. We may also get tired mentally as well as physically. Usually, we are able to restore our energy with food and rest, but illnesses can mean fatigue will stay regardless.
Patients with scurvy will often experience fatigue and it will be difficult for them to get things done. Fatigue can be caused by a number of things, some potentially serious, so you should see a doctor if symptoms persist. Fortunately, in cases of scurvy, a balanced diet with plenty of vitamin C can cure the problem.
