Faridabad Heatwave: Child Patients Double, Doctors Warn of Danger to Kids' Health
•Sudden rise in March heat in Faridabad has doubled the number of child patients in hospitals.
•Cases of cold, cough, and fever have rapidly increased, primarily affecting young children due to weakened immunity.
•Dr. Sushil Singla of Sarvodaya Hospital Sector-8 attributes the surge to active viruses and children's inability to adjust to temperature fluctuations.
•Doctors advise strengthening immunity with Vitamin-C rich fruits, ensuring hydration, and avoiding sudden temperature changes.
•Key preventive measures include thorough handwashing, maintaining good hygiene, and extra vigilance for children up to five years of age.
