TODAY I AM GOING TO WRITE ABOUT PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN DURING RAINY SEASON. ALL OF US WAIT FOR THE MONSOON WHOLE YEAR. JUST TO PLAY IN PUDDLES, GET WET AND MAKE PAPER BOATS. BUT THERE ARE SOME DISADVANTAGES BESIDES THE FUN. BUT DO NOT WORRY I AM HERE WITH SOME TIPS TO TAKE CARE DURING RAINY SEASON.
- ALWAYS CARRY AN UMBRELLA. GETTING WET MAY CAUSE A SUDDEN CHANGE IN YOUR BODY THAT MAY LEAD TO COLD, COUGH AND FEVER.
- KEEP YOUR NUTRITION UP. IT IS THE EASIEST WAY OF BEING SAFE. JUST COOK A HOT SOUP OR A DELICIOUS MEAL THAT WILL MAKE YOU FEEL WARM. VITAMIN C RICH FOODS WILL ALSO BOOST UP YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM.
- WASH YOUR HANDS. THOUGH IN THIS COVID SITUATION WE SHOULD WASH OUR HANDS TIME TO TIME BUT IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT DURING RAINY SEASON. THE DIRTY AND MUDDY WATER MAY CAUSE SEVERAL INFECTIONS. IT ALSO LEADS TO TO ITCHING.
- DRINK PLENTY OF WATER. A CUP OF TEA WITH HOT P[AKODAS WITH RAIN WATER IS SIMPLY RELAXING. YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BE HYDRATED. SO DRINK AROUND 8 GLASSES WHICH WILL HELP IN KEEPING THE HYDRATION LVEL TO THE HIGHEST.
- USE MOSQUITO NETS AND REPELLENTS. MALARIA IS THE MOST COMMON DISEASE DURING MONSOON. SINCE IT IS SPREAD BY FEMALE ANOPHELES MOSQUITO, IT IS ADVISABLE TO USE MOSQUITO NET AND REPELLENT. ALSO TRY TO GET RID OF ANY STAGNANT WATER AS IT IS THE BREEDING SPOT FOR MOSQUITOES. EMPTY OUT THE GARDEN POTS, OLD CONTAINERS AND OTHER ITEMS THAT RETAIN WATER DURING MONSOON.
- AVOID UNCOOKED AND STREET FOOD. IT IS ADVISABLE TO AVOID UNCOOKED OR STREET FOOD BECAUSE THEY MAY HAVE GERMS AND THE CHANCES OF INFECTION ARE HIGHER DURING MONSOON. COOK VEGETABLES TO KILL THE DISEASE CAUSING BACTERIA. TRY TO EAT HOME-COOKED FOOD.
- AVOID WALKING IN DIRTY WATER. TRY TO AVOID WALKING IN DIRTY PUDDLE DURING THE RAINS AS IT IS RIFE WITH INFECTION CAUSING VIRUS AND BACTERIA. IF YOUR FEET GET WET, CHANGE YOUR SOCKS AND FOOTWEAR. KEEP AN EXTRA PAIR OF SHOES AND CLOTHES IN THE OFFICE.
- TAKE BATH AS SOON AS YOU REACH HOME. TAKE BATH WHEN YOU REACH HOME IN THE EVENING TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM INFECTIONS. YOU CAN USE DETTOL OR SAVLON DURING YOUR BATH. ALSO, WASH YOUR HANDS AND FEET AS YOU REACH YOUR OFFICE TO ELIMINATE GERMS. YOU CAN ALSO TAKE VITAMIN C SUPPLEMENT TO IMPROVE YOUR IMMUNITY.
- AVOID WET WALLS. WET WALLS ARE THE BREEDING GROUND FOR FUNGUS AND IT CAN CAUSE ALLERGIES AND TRIGGER ASTHMA IF YOU ARE ASTHMATIC. AVOID GOING NEAR A WET WALL.
- DRINK LOTS OF BOILED WATER. WE TEND TO DRINK LESS WATER DURING MONSOON AS WE ARE NOT REALLY THIRSTY BUT YOUR BODY NEEDS WATER. DRINK LOTS OF WATER AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE DRINKING BOILED OR PURIFIED WATER. THIS WILL LOWER THE RISK OF WATERBORNE DISEASES LIKE STOMACH INFECTION AND DIARRHEA.
THAT’S ALL FOR TODAY. BYE
