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.
