As Temperatures Remain High, Hospitals In Bikaner Prepare To Handle Heatstroke Patients | ABP News
Bikaner is once again sweltering under the sun after a brief respite provided by rainfall a few days ago. Temperatures in the city have started crossing 45 degrees celsius, leaving citizens seeking shade or reluctant to step out of their homes altogether. "The heat in Bikaner is breaking records and we don't know what will happen next, Right now its only May, and it has become so difficult to get out of the house that we have to cover our entire face. It is necessary for everyone to get out of the house, everyone has their own work. What I want to say is that use more fluids, drink water and keep yourself safe," says Local Resident. With heat-related illnesses on the rise, hospitals are witnessing an increased influx of patients suffering from diarrhoea, dizziness, and fever. Fortunately, according to doctors, heatstroke patients are few and far between.
