Heat Wave

A noticeable fluctuation in temperature is being observed in different parts of the country, with intense heat during the day followed by relatively cooler conditions at night. Such contrasting weather patterns are contributing to a rise in various health problems, particularly among children, the elderly, and individuals with chronic illnesses.

According to physicians, high daytime temperatures cause the body to sweat in an effort to stay cool. However, when temperatures drop suddenly at night, the body’s ability to regulate its internal temperature can be disrupted. As a result, cases of cold, cough, fever, sore throat, breathing difficulties, and allergies are increasing. In some instances, the risk of viral infections has also risen.

Health experts advise wearing light but layered clothing during this period, allowing adjustments according to temperature changes. Drinking plenty of water during the day and using light warm clothing at night can help prevent illness. Extra caution is especially important for children and older adults.

Public health specialists further recommend limiting unnecessary outdoor activities during extreme temperature shifts, maintaining a nutritious diet, and ensuring adequate sleep. They also urge people to seek medical attention promptly if symptoms persist.

Although the current weather fluctuations may be temporary, experts emphasize that awareness and preventive measures are key to reducing potential health risks.
