How to Cope with Illnesses during Rainy Season

Rainy season is pleasant but it gets lot of illnesses along with it. However, if you take certain precautions during rainy season, you can keep illnesses away from you. Read on to find some tips for coping with illnesses during rainy season.

Most of us enjoy the downpour but the infection and the illness that it brings in is the main problem. This becomes all the more problematic when there are small children at home.

Tips to Cope with Illness during Rainy Season

Some common illnesses can not be avoided during rainy season. Here are some tips for helping you to cope with rainy season illnesses.

Be Prepared for Rainy Season

When you are going out, you should be prepared and well geared so that even if you are caught in rain, you do not get drenched. This is very important. This will save you from many infections.

Drink Purified Water

To save yourself from water borne diseases try to purify the drinking water up to the maximum level. There are many new and improved water filters available in the market. They are not only economical are useful also. If you do not have any water purifying system at home, you should buy one of these this rainy season. You can also drink boiled water in the absence of water filter to get somewhat relief from infections.

Take Extra Care

No one wants to get sick. But if anyone is sick in your home, try to give him complete comfort and keep him warm especially when it is cold or flu. Do not take any kind of risk and if the temperature or the symptoms persists even after 24 hours, consult the doctor.

When a person is sick, he or she might feel depressed and so you can put on light and soothing music so that it helps him feel relaxed.

Keep yourself Clean

If the cause of disease is lack of cleanliness, either inside or outside the house, get it rectified first. Cleanliness in every aspect is extremely important during rainy season.

Always wear clean and dry clothes. If possible, keep one extra set of clothing with you when you go out so that even if you get caught in rain, you can change into dry clothes.

Avoid Eating Outside and Stay Fit

It is good to eat easily digestive food items in this season. Avoid eating out at any cost. Increase intake of green vegetables and fruits. Try to make your life disciplined and do exercise for at least 30 minutes daily. This will help you keep away many diseases.

A glass of hot milk with one teaspoonful of turmeric powder is a very good remedy and you should drink this at night before going to bed.

Try to avoid getting wet in rains as much as possible. This will help you to keep the health disorders away during rainy season. The first thing which you get affect by when you get wet in rain is cold. And in this way you may also get fever if you get wet in rains for a longer time. Therefore, if it starts raining and you do not have umbrella you should wait rain to stop instead on getting wet in rain.

It is better to avoid eating outside during rainy season. If you avoid eating outside during rainy season, you can automatically keep lot of health disorders away from you. It is very necessary to eat only homemade food during rainy season as lot of water born diseases spread during rainy season due to eating outside. Therefore, I prefer to drink boiled water and I avoid eating outside during rainy season to avoid health disorders.

Cold is a common illness which is caused during rainy season. Cold is an unavoidable disorder during rainy season. Therefore, it is better to avoid having cold stuff during rainy season as it may increase the chances of getting cold during rainy season. Apart from cold, flu, fever, coughs are other disorders which a person may suffer from during the rainy season.
