Firecrackers Hazards & Health Issues During Diwali Festival!

Topic Image

India is a country where every religious festival is celebrated proudly and with full of energy & enthusiasm. As a secular state, everyone includes themselves in every religious festival for celebration & India is called the land of the festival. Diwali is considered the most important & holy festival as during Diwali, we worship Goddess Laxmi for every essential we require in our life including wealth as well as health.

Diwali is also known as the festival of lights. When it comes to lights, the firecrackers are the must in to-buy-list of every Indian. Indians buy the firecrackers in such a large quantity and then it just turns into ashes. We may find fun in burning the crackers but we are still unaware of the hazard we have done to our health. When we burn one-single cracker, we release a tremendous amount of toxin which makes the winter air extremely toxic. Such toxins form a stubborn fog which makes it difficult to breathe. Hence, it ends up causing severe health issues to kids, senior citizens, pregnant women, etc.

Most of the health cases that are registered in Diwali are majorly related to asthma, coronary issues, lung disorder, chronic or allergic bronchitis, bronchial asthma, sinusitis, rhinitis, pneumonia, and laryngitis, etc. Air quality takes a deep plunge as the problem gets compounded. This leads to an increase in the number of asthma & lung disorder patients. The symptoms start from difficulty in breathing, cough & wheezing.

However, there are cures to all these health problems. These disorders can be overcome by the right treatments. Ayurvedic treatments for asthma, breathlessness, sinusitis along with proper diet and lifestyle can give you the best relief like never before. Also, as responsible citizens, we must take care of nature and other living beings. Let’s celebrate Diwali that is free from any pollution.
