Síndrome de Puerto Rico

Síndrome de Puerto Rico refers to a collection of symptoms experienced by some individuals after returning from Puerto Rico, characterized by persistent fatigue, sleep disturbances, cognitive difficulties, and sometimes headaches or muscle pain. It is considered a complex, poorly understood condition possibly linked to environmental, infectious, or psychosomatic factors. While research is ongoing, the syndrome highlights the need for awareness of post-travel health issues and appropriate medical evaluation. Patients often report symptoms lasting weeks or months, but the exact cause remains unclear, emphasizing the importance of thorough diagnosis and supportive care.
