Due to the increasing pollution in Delhi and NCR, the health of people is having a serious impact. Dr. Avi Kumar, Senior Consultant and Pulmonology Specialist, Fortis Escorts, Delhi, said that in recent times, problems like shortness of breath, cough, throat irritation, nasal congestion, runny nose and itching in the eyes are increasing continuously. He says that these symptoms are becoming very common among patients coming to the hospital's OPD.

According to Dr Avi, the number of patients complaining of breathing problems, wheezing, coughing and throat irritation is increasing in our OPD. At the same time, cases of pneumonia are also seen increasing in patients coming to the emergency. There are many patients who neither smoke nor their immunity is weak, which makes this situation even more worrisome.

Due to the rising pollution level in

Delhi, toxic particles dissolved in the air are affecting the lungs. This situation is especially serious for children, the elderly and people already suffering from respiratory diseases. Dr. Kumar says that as much as possible, people should stay at home and if it is necessary to go out, then try to go out only when the pollution level is slightly low.

Dr. Avi advises to take care of cleanliness even inside the house and use air purifiers to avoid pollution. Also, drink plenty of water to reduce the effect of harmful particles in the body.

In view of the increasing level of pollution in Delhi, Dr. Avi Kumar has appealed to the people to be vigilant. He says that at this time taking special care of your health and avoiding going out is the best solution. At the same time, special care should be taken of children and the elderly so that they can avoid this polluted air.
