Staying Healthy This Rainy Season – A Note from Vital Homoeos
Posted on June 27th, 2025
At Vital Homoeos, we see a noticeable increase in patients with fungal skin infections during the monsoon. The rainy season brings much-needed relief from the heat, but also creates a perfect environment for infections to thrive — especially fungal ones in skin folds, toes, underarms, and private parts.
Let’s understand how you can protect yourself and your family from these seasonal challenges.
Common Health Concerns in Rainy Season:
-
Fungal infections (especially in skin folds, groin, feet)
-
Cold, cough, and viral fever
-
Stomach infections due to unsafe food
-
Mosquito-borne diseases like dengue & malaria
-
Joint pains flaring up in elderly or arthritis patients
Fungal Infections: A Rising Concern-:
We are seeing many patients with:
-
Itching between toes (often due to wet footwear)
-
Red patches in underarms or groin area
-
Recurring ringworm (दाद) infections
-
Sweat-induced fungal rashes in obese individuals
These infections spread easily, recur frequently, and often get worse with self-medication or steroid creams.
Tips to Prevent Fungal Infections:
-
Always dry your feet and folds (underarms, groin, neck) properly after bathing
-
Use cotton innerwear, and change sweaty clothes immediately
-
Never wear wet socks or shoes
-
Sprinkle antifungal dusting powder in high-sweat areas
-
Don’t share towels or personal items
Other General Tips for Rainy Season:
-
Avoid raw or outside food
-
Drink only filtered or boiled water
-
Keep surroundings clean and dry
-
Use mosquito repellents or nets
-
Strengthen immunity with a balanced diet and timely sleep
