Monsoon & Health Check-up

Why Monsoons call for a health reality check?

Ah, the monsoons, the smell of the freshly moist earth, cozy evenings with chai and pakoras, the pitter-patter of raindrops against window sills, this is nothing less than pure magic. But while we’re soaking in this beauty of the season, have you ever worried about our bodies soaking in a little too much, well, bacteria?

Monsoons sure are a welcome relief from the scorching heat during summers, but they carry an entire battalion of infections. From viral fevers to belly bugs, it’s as if the weather has some sort of hidden grudge against our immunity. Don’t fret, though, because there’s a way to savour the rain without it raining on all over your health, and it begins with a quick health check. Even if you don’t usually fall ill easily or have a strong immunity, monsoon can play tricks on you. Here’s why a simple health check-up could be your saviour during this season(post that cup of chai, naturally):
1. Waterborne Diseases Do Exist

Stagnant, mushy water is the unwanted guest of the monsoon. It can cause diseases such as typhoid, jaundice, and diarrhoea. A Liver Function Test (LFT) or Typhoid Profile can identify early signs.

2. Dengue Season and Viral Fever

Mosquitoes adore rain as much as we humans do, except with dengue, malaria, and chikungunya. CBC (Complete Blood Count) It is one test that monitors platelets and can detect infections early before they get serious.

3. Respiratory Issues

Sudden coughing? It may be more than the weather. Monsoon allergies and sinus infections peak at this time. A simple Allergy Panel or CRP Test can eliminate inflammation or infection.

4. Gut Gone Rogue?

That alluring street food may bring about more than a guilty feeling. Stool analysis, Widal, or even a simple health checkup may aid in checking your digestion and fluid levels. 

Let’s be honest, even after knowing all these issues, getting soaked and savouring the season is all we want. But none of us would want to be drenched in the monsoon rains while on the way to a health-check up, of course. That is where Flebo.in enters, your friendly neighbourhood test labs, all in one place.
