Some of the most prevalent monsoon ailments, as well as methods to avoid them.
Malaria is transmitted by Anopheles mosquitoes. Malaria cases increase during the rainy season due to water blockage in many regions, which provides a breeding habitat for mosquitoes. Fever, bodily ache, chills, and sweating are some of the symptoms. To avoid malaria, stay away from stagnant water near your home and apply insect repellents.
Cold and flu: During the monsoon, the abrupt change in temperature might render one vulnerable to bacterial and viral infections, resulting in cold and flu. As a result, if you want to enhance your immunity, you should eat nutritious foods.
Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne disease carried by the Aedes aegypti mosquito during the rainy season. Fever, rashes, headaches, and a low platelet count are all danger indicators. To avoid mosquito bites, wear long-sleeved clothing.
Cholera is a water-borne infection caused by Vibrio cholerae bacterium strains. Cholera affects the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in severe dehydration and diarrhea. You avoid becoming sick, make sure to drink boiling, treated, or filtered water.
Typhoid fever can be contracted by contaminated food or water. As a result, maintaining adequate hygiene and sanitation might help you avoid it.
Hepatitis A is caused by contaminated food and drink, and it damages the liver. Fever, vomiting, and a rash are some of the symptoms. Hepatitis A may be avoided by practicing excellent hygiene.
Leptospirosis is a bacterial illness spread between humans and animals (such as dogs and rats). The organism is carried by these animals and ends up in soil and water through their urine. The illness is disseminated mostly through open sores on the skin when traveling through damp places. Symptoms of leptospirosis include muscular pain, vomiting, diarrhea, and a skin rash. Avoid wading across flooded regions.
