Summer flu activity increases warns doctor
Summer heatwaves lead to an increase in summer influenza cases, which present with respiratory symptoms such as a runny nose and sore throat, as well as digestive symptoms like diarrhea and vomiting. These are caused by viruses such as enteroviruses and rhinoviruses. Most of these cases are mild and resolve within a few days with proper care and rest. However, excessive use of air conditioning and significantly lowering the temperature can worsen the condition, causing dryness and irritation of the respiratory system, especially in people with asthma and allergies. It is advised to avoid sleeping directly in front of the air conditioner, to keep the body hydrated, and not to use antibiotics unless recommended by a doctor. If symptoms persist for more than three days or signs of dehydration appear, a medical consultation is necessary.
