Heat Wave

Heat wave has started and temperature has started rising above levels of 40 degree Celsius. In coming day’s temperature will keep increasing and jeopardize the normal life. Hopefully summer vacation for school going children’s will start soon as the children are the first and prime victim of heat wave. These days danger exists for many common diseases like Diarrhea, water borne infection, low blood pressure etc.

  • Some common methods to save yourself from heat stroke are as under :-
  • Drink lot of lemon water, fruit juice, liquid drinks, milk, glucose 
  • Wash your hand, legs and face 2-3 times during the day with water
  • Eat lots of seasonal fruits like water melons, cucumber, Muskmelon, etc.
  • Everyday take bath 2 times a day (morning & evening)
  • Cover your body as much as possible to save yourself from heat & warm air waves.
  • Use umbrella, towel on head / Cap or Hut
  • Try to complete & execute your work during morning and evening hours (avoid  afternoon timings for field work until or unless it is very much necessary)

Immediately consult Doctor in case of any problem.
