In recent weeks, many people have been experiencing cold, throat pain, and fever—sometimes repeatedly. These symptoms may seem common, but the increasing frequency is closely linked to changing climate conditions, lifestyle factors, and environmental exposure. Understanding the reasons behind this rise can help you take timely action and avoid complications.
Sudden shifts in temperature—from hot days to cooler evenings or unexpected rain—can irritate the throat and nasal lining. This irritation weakens the body’s first line of defense, making it easier for infections to set in.
High humidity creates an ideal environment for viruses and bacteria to grow, while air pollution inflames the respiratory tract. Together, they increase the risk of throat infections, colds, and fever.
Seasonal changes often challenge the immune system. During these periods, the body takes time to adapt, leaving you more vulnerable to infections—especially children, elderly individuals, and those with existing health conditions.
Daily exposure in offices, schools, public transport, and crowded places makes infections spread faster. A single untreated cold or throat infection can quickly pass from person to person.
While mild symptoms may resolve on their own, do not ignore them if:
Symptoms last more than 2–3 days
Fever keeps recurring
Throat pain worsens or affects swallowing
You feel extreme fatigue or breathlessness
Self-medication can sometimes delay proper treatment and worsen the condition.
At VSH Superspeciality Hospital, experienced general physicians focus on accurate diagnosis and timely treatment to prevent common infections from turning into serious health issues. Early consultation helps identify whether the cause is viral, bacterial, allergic, or related to environmental triggers—and ensures the right line of care.
