Delhi: The way the weather is constantly changing in North India and especially in Delhi-NCR. In such a situation, due to sudden increase in temperature, people are sometimes feeling hot and sometimes due to sudden drop in temperature, they are feeling cold. While elders and elderly people are falling ill due to this weather, doctors say that at this time, newborns and children below 2 years of age are falling ill more. Why are doctors saying this and what facts do they have behind it? When we talked to Dr. Tarun Singh, the most famous child specialist and newborn specialist of Delhi-NCR on this topic, let us tell you what important things he shared on this.

Dr. Tarun said that this time the way the weather is continuously changing not only in Delhi-NCR but in the entire North India. Due to this, there has been a 20% to 30% increase in OPD of children in government and private hospitals of North India. He said that the children who fell most ill in this were newborn babies. But it has also been seen that children aged 2 years and below have become very ill this time and more of their cases have come to OPD. At the same time, Dr. Tarun also said that the most worrying thing is that whenever he talked to the pharmaceutical people, they said that this time the sales of nebulizers have increased and one out of every three nebulizers has been purchased for small children.

save children this way
Dr. Tarun first of all said that the weather is constantly changing, hence parents are quickly reducing the clothes of their small children and making them wear thin clothes. Whereas they should not do this. Parents should make their children wear cotton clothes one above the other, so that one layer will remain and their body will continue to get warmth. He said that at this time of life, children are feeling hot, so there is no need for parents to take trouble. It is important that whenever the weather is cold or there is sudden cold wind, children should be protected from it because this is what is making children the most sick at this time.

He also said that during this time, keep feeding nutritious food to the children continuously and in this season, they should stop eating outside food completely and whenever the child falls ill, they should definitely take him to the doctor. In the end, he also said that AQI is very bad especially in Delhi-NCR, so parents must keep in mind that whenever AQI is bad in the morning and evening, they should not take their small children out.
