Rainy Season Alert: As soon as the rainy season arrives, many of us feel like getting wet! Especially children, they are eager to run out as soon as the first drops of rain fall. But at the same time, there is also a fear in the mind – what if they get an itch, an infection, or a cold? Although this fear is right, if a bit of caution is taken, then rainwater can be beneficial instead of making you sick. Let’s know how.
Disadvantages of getting wet in the rain, which are essential to avoid!
Often, people fall sick after getting wet in the rain. A significant reason for this is pollution and bacteria, which can be carried on our skin by rainwater and cause allergies. Cold and cough are also common. Especially those who have weak immunity are at a higher risk of getting sick. But, if you want to avoid getting sick, then it is crucial to keep some things in mind after getting wet in the rain:
Bathing with clean water: After getting wet in the rain, remember to bathe with clean water. This washes away the bacteria and dust particles that come with the rainwater.
Dry and clean clothes: Wear clean and dry clothes immediately after bathing. Wearing wet clothes increases the risk of fungal infection.
Prevention of infection: If you are concerned about fungal infections, consider adding neem leaves or neem oil to your bath water or using an antibacterial soap.
Increase immunity: To strengthen your immunity, eat foods rich in vitamin C or take vitamin C tablets.
Home remedies: To prevent a cold and cough, prepare a decoction of black pepper, ginger, and basil leaves and drink it. This is a tried-and-tested remedy of grandmothers!
So, are there any benefits of getting wet in the rain?
Of course! Although we talked about the disadvantages, there are some interesting benefits of getting wet in the rain:
Mood will be bright: Getting wet in the rain improves the mood and all the stress goes away. Just imagine how relaxing it feels when cold drops fall on you!
Blood circulation of the skin: Cold water also improves blood circulation in the skin, which can be good for your skin.
So the next time it rains, just be a little smart. Keep these things in mind and enjoy the rain to the fullest!
