Monsoon Health in Delhi: Staying Well in Budh Vihar This Season

Every monsoon, hospitals across North West Delhi see a predictable rise in a handful of conditions — waterborne illness and mosquito-borne fevers from standing water.

Boil or filter drinking water during monsoon months. Keep an eye out for standing water around the house, in coolers, or open containers — mosquito eggs can become a nuisance within days.

Fever lasting more than two days, joint pain alongside fever, or a rash appearing during monsoon season are worth getting checked promptly — early diagnosis makes a real difference with dengue and chikungunya.

Our OPD and emergency department stay busy through the season for exactly this reason.
