Children, people aged 60+ especially avoid exposure
The elders of the house often say – dress properly and go out. This is not wrong. Especially in this season. Dr. Sanjeev says – “It is the season of cold stroke, hence the body should not be forced to bear the sudden change in external temperature. For example, if you are completely confined, then go out after becoming a little normal. Meaning, do not go out suddenly. If you have to go out, wear warm clothes properly. Keep your neck covered. Never take off all your warm clothes at once. Do not take off your warm clothes immediately after waking up in the morning or go to bathe. If you already have BP, keep taking the medicine. Even if you don’t have it, Keep getting checked if it seems abnormal. Sometimes the amount of BP medicine increases in winter, so do not ignore it. Diabetic patients or people 60+ should especially avoid exposure.”
