Hyderabad Sees Spike in Post-Diwali Cough Cases Amid Pollution and Fluctuations

Hyderabad Sees Spike in Post-Diwali Cough Cases Amid Pollution and Fluctuations

Imagine your body's defense system, like a superhero team, that got a bit too excited after the COVID-19 sickness.

Now, when tiny dust particles or smoke from Diwali fireworks fly around, or the weather changes, this superhero team overreacts.

This makes kids and young adults cough a lot, and sometimes it's hard for doctors to tell if it's a real infection or just the superheroes being extra sensitive.

Sometimes, breathing in pollution or having tummy troubles can also make the cough worse.

Doctors say that if a cough lasts too long, it's important to see a doctor to figure out what's really going on and help the superhero team calm down so everyone can breathe easier.
