Diwali Health Risks: Diwali is a festival of happiness, but the smoke of firecrackers makes this festival poisonous. The smog that engulfs the cities after Diwali is not only a danger to our health but also to our environment. Children, the elderly and sick people are most affected by this pollution. Respiratory diseases, eye irritation and skin problems increase. In such a situation, let us tell you in detail in this article which people may have to face health problems after Diwali.

 

 

Children

Smog is like poison for children. Exposure to smog is very harmful during the development of their delicate lungs. Children are most vulnerable to smog due to their habit of playing outside. This can lead to not only asthma but also serious lung diseases like pneumonia and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

 

Mostly live outside

People who work outside are most affected by air pollution. They fall ill easily and may have trouble breathing. Exposure to polluted air for a long time can cause lung diseases, such as COPD. Irritation, redness and dryness of the eyes are also common problems. Some people may also have a sore throat and hoarseness of voice after Diwali.

 

Respiratory patients

People who have asthma or chronic respiratory diseases are most affected by smog. They fall ill very quickly. Due to smog, their diseases can worsen and they can also suffer a heart attack or paralysis. When there is a lot of smog, these people have a lot of difficulty in breathing and often get heart attacks.

 

Elderly

The weakened immune system of the elderly makes them more vulnerable to air pollution. Pollution increases the risk of heart disease, which can lead to heart attack and other related problems. Smog irritates the nose and throat, causing difficulty in breathing and inflammation of the lungs.
