Dr. Sonia Rawat, director of the Preventive Health and Wellness Department of Sir Gangaram Hospital in New Delhi, told News18 That temperature fluctuates and moisture increases during the rainy season. Due to this, viruses and bacteria begin to grow. This increases problems like viral infection, fever and cold. The immune system can weaken the immune system due to soaking in the rain and cool air. In such a situation, you should avoid getting wet in the rain, so that you can stay healthy. Try to avoid the flu in the rain and if there is any problem, then meet the doctor and get treatment.

According to the expert, food deteriorates quickly due to moisture and dirt in the monsoon, which increases problems like food poisoning, diarrhea and typhoid. To avoid this, avoid eating fast food outside, eat fresh food and take special care of cleanliness. Drink water only after filtering or boiling. It is common in this season to have rashes, itching and fungal infections on the skin. The under arms, feet and waist parts are wet with sweat and this causes fungal infection to spread. To avoid this, wear cotton clothes, keep the body dry and use anti-fungal powder or cream.

Dr. Rawat said that many people complain of knees or back pain during the monsoon. This weather can increase stiffness and inflammation in joints. In this case, do light exercise, bake with warm water and take supplements with medical advice. Children and the elderly have low immunity, which can make them sick quickly. Keep children away from dirty water, give umbrella while going to school and get wet, change clothes immediately. Take care to give hot water, light food and time to the elderly.

Now the question is what to do to stay healthy in the monsoon? According to the doctor, it is very important to wash regular hands, to take a balanced diet and cleanliness to prevent diseases during the rainy season. To increase immunity, consume turmeric milk, basil-ginger tea and fruits. Gold and yoga-pranayam also keeps the body healthy on time. Apart from this, use mosquito nets or mosquito repelles to avoid mosquitoes. Do not allow water to accumulate around the house and remove it in the pots.
