🌧️ Rainy Season Care Tips for Kids & Adults
👶 For Kids:
1. Keep Them Dry
Use raincoats, waterproof shoes, and umbrellas.
Change wet clothes immediately to prevent cold and rashes.
2. Boost Immunity
Include seasonal fruits (like oranges, guava), warm soups, and turmeric milk.
Give vitamin C-rich foods to fight infections.
3. Avoid Street Food
Rain increases the risk of waterborne diseases — diarrhea, typhoid, etc.
4. Protect Against Mosquitoes
Use mosquito nets/repellents; avoid stagnant water near the home.
5. Watch for Skin Infections
Fungal infections are common. Keep skin folds dry. Use antifungal powders if needed.
6. Keep Play Indoors When Necessary
Wet playgrounds or muddy areas may cause injuries or infections.

🧑🦳 For Adults:
1. Strengthen Immunity
Eat clean, warm food; avoid raw salads from outside.
Herbal teas, ginger, tulsi, and honey are helpful.
2. Footwear Matters
Avoid open sandals or flip-flops; use anti-skid waterproof shoes.
3. Drive Carefully
Roads are slippery; low visibility. Avoid driving during heavy showers if possible.
4. Personal Hygiene
Shower after getting wet in the rain. Wash feet often and dry well.
5. Watch for Respiratory Issues
Rain can aggravate asthma or allergies. Carry inhalers or meds as needed.
6. Clothing
Wear light but quick-drying clothes. Avoid damp clothes to prevent fungal infections.
