🌦️ Introduction: When Weather Affects Health

The weather only does not affect what we wear or eat – it plays a huge role in our health. Each season brings its own set of challenges. From heatwaves and monsoon humidity to cold winter and air pollution, these changes can trigger infections, diseases and even severe outbreaks. 

But here is good news: With initial detection and correct equipment, most of these diseases can be treated quickly and effectively. 

This is where Astam Diagnostics Pvt. Ltd. comes in – helping healthcare workers and hospitals stay one step ahead with fast, reliable and accessible diagnostic test kits.

🌡️ How Seasonal Changes Affect Health

Different types of seasons affect the way microbes grow, spread and affect our immune system. Here is a description of the health risks associated with seasonal changes:

☀️ Summer: heat and hygiene hazards

Food deteriorates quickly due to rising temperature and increases hygiene related infections. 

Common diseases :

  • Typhoid – due to contaminated food or water
  • H. pylori infection – often related to poor hygiene and dietary habits
  • Dehydration, heat exhaustion and related fatigue

🌧️ Monsoon: waterborne and mosquito-borne diseases

Stable water becomes a breeding ground for mosquitoes. Floods increase contact with contaminated water sources. 

Common infections :

  • Dengue and malaria – due to mosquito bites
  • Leptospirosis – due to contaminated animal urine
  • Typhoid and diarrhoeal diseases – due to water pollution

❄️ Winter: cold, pollution and weakened immunity

Drops in temperature and air quality increase respiratory problems. The immune system often weakens during the colder months.

Common problems :

  • Flu-like symptoms, chest infections and viral fever
  • Increased heart pressure and heart rate
  • Reactivation of latent infections
