Monsoon Is Here! Save Yourself From Flu To Enjoy This Season In The Best Way

We all love monsoons, don't we? After all, they provide the much needed relief from the scorching heat by bringing the temperature down. However, like every other season, monsoon also comes with some pros and cons. Waterlogged streets and seasonal flu are some of the cons that can be tough to negotiate.

However, with proper precautionary measures, we can avoid these diseases and look out for a healthy living, say medical practitioners at AMRI Hospitals, Dhakuria. Here's all what you need to do:


1. Healthy diet plan: A healthy diet plan during the monsoons is necessary to avoid the diseases and safeguard your digestive system. One must avoid street foods like chaat, golgappas, bhelpuri, etc. It is also important to drink plenty of water, alongside fresh fruits and salad.

2. Carry an umbrella: Rains can be inviting when they finally arrive amidst a heat wave, but one must stay away from it, rather than getting drenched. In case you end up getting wet, you need to change your clothes quickly. The monsoon rain can make you prone to diseases like leptospirosis and fungal infections. So, stay away from the rains and avoid walking barefoot in the gardens.

3. Evening shower: We often leave for work after having a bath early in the morning, but are unable to do the same after returning back home. In the season of monsoons, it is better to opt for a shower after returning from work to fight infections caused by sweat and dirt.

4. Keep your hands clean: The best way to protect yourself from cold, cough and influenza is regular hand wash, explain medical practitioners at AMRI Hospitals. When your hands are clean, you can eat and drink, preventing the spread of viruses and bacteria.

5. Never miss an update: Always keep yourself updated with weather alerts to avoid the rains. Try to leave for your workplace and school during dry weather. Never eat with wet hands to avoid the germs from entering into your body.


So, take precaution and enjoy this beautiful season of monsoons. Don’t let the flu ruin your joyful season. Happy Monsoon!
