What problems do people face during the Rainy season?
Problem of Rainy Season
Monsoon is the season that is almost liked by everyone. It comes after summer, so people get relieved from the unbearable heat. Children mostly like to play in the rain. Some children also make boats that they would float on the water collected in front of their homes or their terraces. People like to eat Pakoras in this season.
Though this season protects people from the scorching sun rays of the summer but it also brings many diseases along with it. People who like to get wet in the rain tend to bring home many diseases. This combination of humid climate, heavy rains, and strong winds tends to infect people with a lot of diseases. Viral fever is one of the common diseases that people can catch by getting wet in the rainy season. Along with viral fever, catching a cold and cough, swine flu, and stomach infections are also some common health problems that people catch very easily.
One should avoid getting wet in the rain, especially in the first rain of the season, as it is very dangerous for our body. It contains pollutants and toxic gases, which make the water acidic and harmful for our skin. One should avoid eating street food these days. We should prefer having a healthy and balanced diet. We should try and keep our homes clean during the rainy season. We should stay protected from mosquitoes in this season, especially as they may infect us with many diseases.
Diseases like cholera spread in this season. It is mainly caused by drinking contaminated water. It generally spreads in places with poor sanitation facilities. There is one more disease that spreads by contaminated food or water- Typhoid. Viral fever also infects people in this season. The moment a person gets wet in the rain, they start sneezing and catch a cold. That is the symptom of a viral infection.

The rainy season is one of the most awaited seasons after the scorching heat of summer. The rainy season quenches the thirst of the earth as well as its civilians, it helps crops to grow and restores our groundwater level, and also provides us relief. But at the same time, this monsoon season also causes a lot of problems, some of which are discussed below:
1. It makes travelling a lot more difficult, and we need to carry an umbrella every time. Travelling in two-wheelers or walking off to a place becomes almost impossible as at any time of the day, it can start raining.
2. Heavy monsoons often clog drainage, and as a result, flooding of roads, which also gives rise to dangerous diseases such as dengue and malaria, as water becomes stagnant and it breeds insects such as mosquitoes.
3. Monsoon causes damage, and this also allows the growth of various fungi, which also leads to various skin diseases.
4. As it rains continuously, clothes do not get time to dr,y and this causes massive chaos in the household.
5. The number of accidents also increases as potholes are created and then filled with water.
