The environment becomes heavily polluted during Diwali. Everyone does cleanliness and also due to burning of crackers the air becomes quite poisonous at this time. At this time, harvesting of paddy etc. also takes place, hence due to that also the air level becomes quite bad.

Patients suffering from asthma and respiratory diseases suffer a lot at this time. Due to the air being so poisonous, even ordinary people are not able to live a normal life. You have to take care of some important things at this time so that you can protect yourself from pollution.

Dr. S.S. According to Sibia, Cardiologist and Director, Sibia Medical Centre, Ludhiana, You will always have to use a mask while going out of the house and you will also have to use an air purifier to keep the air at home pure. Let us know how we can use air purifiers and masks to protect ourselves from air pollution during Diwali.

Keep these things in mind before using air purifier

You have to be very careful while choosing an air purifier. Choose it according to the size of your room and keep in mind that it has a high efficiency particulate air filter. You have to keep the air purifier in one corner of the room so that it remains at a distance from all the furniture and windows and doors. You will have to clean it from time to time and change the filters if necessary. Apart from this, keep monitoring the air quality of your room.

Do not go out without wearing a mask

You must wear a good quality mask before going out. Use only N 95 or N 99 mask so that you can get a good filter. Wear the mask properly so that outside air cannot reach inside your body. Keep changing the filter of the mask after some time or if needed.

stay at home

At this time, you may need to go to the market to buy goods, but you should spend most of the time at home and go out as little as possible so that you are not affected much by environmental pollution. If you have to go out of the house, you should wear a mask. Especially at the time of bursting of crackers, like after evening, you should stop leaving the house.

don’t overexert yourself

You should not involve yourself in such activities at this time which make you very tired. This is because at this time you may already have problems in breathing due to air pollution and if you remain more physically active then there will be more pressure on your lungs which is not good for your health. Apart from this, reduce outside food during this period and eat only home-made healthy food so that the nutritional needs of your body can be fulfilled.

keep yourself hydrated

Don’t forget to take care of your hydration. At this time, you start getting a little cold due to which you may feel a little less thirsty, but still you should remember to consume water or any herbal drink so that your body can remain hydrated.
