Monsoon Illnesses & How to Prevent Them: A Guide by Aadicura Experts
Monsoon brings much-needed relief from the scorching heat but it also brings rising cases of infections. In Gujarat, we see a seasonal spike in common diseases in monsoon like dengue, malaria, typhoid, and viral infections.
The combination of stagnant water, increased humidity, and poor food hygiene creates ideal conditions for viruses, bacteria, and mosquitoes to thrive.
Common Diseases in Monsoon
At Aadicura, our doctors regularly treat a range of monsoon-related illnesses, including:
Dengue & Malaria: Mosquito-borne diseases with symptoms like high fever, fatigue, chills, and body pain.
Typhoid & Hepatitis A: Spread through contaminated water or food. Symptoms include fever, abdominal pain, and weakness.
Leptospirosis: Caused by walking through water contaminated with animal urine can lead to fever, muscle pain, and severe complications.
Viral Flu, Cold & Cough: Humidity weakens immunity and causes a rise in respiratory issues.
Stomach Infections: Diarrhea and vomiting from poor hygiene and unclean food especially street food.

Senior Citizens

People with Chronic Conditions (like diabetes)
Outdoor Workers and People in Flood-prone Areas
