The Covid-19 is back with more risks after laying low for some time. India is one of the leading countries with new Covid strain cases. According to experts, this new strain directly hits your lungs which is quite harmful and dangerous for anyone’s health. Ongoing vaccination drive is trying to protect as many people as possible from this dreaded virus.
There are many people getting infected. Some are being hospitalized and some are in-home isolation. Those who are hospitalized are under the care of health experts but those who are in home isolation may find it more difficult to get a proper healthcare routine.
The first thing the home isolated people should do is to inform everyone immediately that they are infected and people should not come to their house to meet them. If you are a Covid patient, it is important for you to maintain hygiene in every way right from regular washing of hands to sanitizing your area and hands frequently. A daily bath and keep washing your clothes are also important.
By keeping and maintaining hygiene you can stop the spread of the virus from your house. It is also important for you to recover well from the infection. You should not avoid having medications provided by health experts, If you have any doubt regarding your medications, you should call your doctor straight away and ask for their opinion. Do not try to exercise when you are sick. Exercise is only going to make it worse and worsen your breathing problems.
Some homemade and science-approved remedies would also work for you such as having hot drinks like lemon water and avoiding any kind of cold drinks while you are fighting the infection. Turmeric milk would be beneficial as it works as an antioxidant and antibiotic. Keep your diet healthy, include fruits and green vegetables in it to improve your immunity and a glass of ‘Kadha’ twice a day would make you feel better with your cold.
In any kind of medical emergency such as increased breathing issues, unbearable weakness and high fever do not ignore the symptoms. Call your doctor right on time or call on the emergency numbers available in your city.
Staying at home is a one-way option to keep other people safe from the infection. If you are living with family you should isolate yourself in a different room and avoid contact with other family members at home.
“The more careful we are, safer it is. The virus is so strong that it can ruin your health condition especially of those who are having other diseases like diabetes and heart issues. Stay home as long as you can and wear masks. Avoid travelling. If you step out, it is important to follow all the protocols and safety measures to stay safe and keep your loved ones safe from this deadly virus”, states Dr. Pranav Singh, M.B.B.S.
