With the change in temperature and increase in pollution levels, heart diseases are on the rise in Hyderabad, raising public health concerns.
As Hyderabad enters winter, heart diseases are on the rise in the city. Hospitals are reporting an increase in respiratory infections with symptoms such as persistent cough, chest tightness, fever and fatigue. Experts attribute such high altitudes to climate instability, pollution and vulnerability.
Daytime temperatures drop and humidity increases, creating favorable conditions for viruses such as influenza and RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) to multiply. In addition, long-term exposure to smoke can worsen respiratory diseases, especially in children and the elderly. According to the Indian Medical Association, the number of patients admitted to hospitals in Hyderabad with upper respiratory diseases has increased by 20-30 percent.
Doctors recommend staying warm, wearing masks to reduce air pollution and practicing good hygiene. Special attention is recommended for high-risk groups, such as those with asthma or weakened immune systems. In addition, climate experts emphasize the need for sustainable measures to prevent pollution and adapt to climate change.
Finally, remember: vigilance and public awareness can reduce these health problems and prioritize health in the face of climate uncertainty #Hydkhabar
