Monsoon in Chennai has been the season of infectious diseases and are spreading rapidly as most places in the city have been breading places for mosquitoes. Flu, on the other hand, has been highly contagious and affects all age groups, especially young children, old age and patients with co-morbid conditions such as diabetes, asthma and kidney-related diseases. Fever is no longer a common disease, it is an indication that there is an infection in the body that needs to be investigated. Certain fevers like dengue and malaria can even cause lung injury and turn out to be fatal.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n

<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n

Speaking about the Fever Clinic\u00a0Dr Subramanian Swaminathan, Senior Consultant \u2013 Infectious Diseases, Gleneagles Global Health City<\/b>\u00a0Said, \u201cWe have been observing a trend that many patients coming in with fever are not diagnosed on time, which leads to several complications and particularly during monsoon period fever cases are raising steadily year on year. Early diagnosis is the key to avoid complications due to fever hence it\u2019s imperative to educate patients on preventive measures\u201d.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n

<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

This fever clinic which is getting launched will promote health awareness and prevent disease propagation by healthy practices and share information regarding the latest updates on various diseases with our community doctors and staff to understand the needs of the patients and their warning signs\u201d, added\u00a0Dr Ashwin Karuppan, Consultant \u2013 Internal Medicine &Diabetology, Gleneagles Global Health City<\/u><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n
