🌧️ Introduction

The rains in Bangalore bring relief from the summer heat—but they also bring a spike in viral fevers, dengue, flu, and water-borne infections. For families across New BEL Road and nearby Devasandra Layout, dealing with fever during the monsoon is common. But when should you manage it at home, and when should you seek medical help?
At Shirdi Sai Hospital, our team of specialists ensures you receive safe, effective, and timely fever care right here in Bangalore. Let’s walk through symptoms, causes, home treatments, and when to book a consultation.

Symptoms

How do you know if your monsoon fever needs attention?

• Sudden rise in body temperature (above 100.4°F / 38°C)
• Chills, sweating, or body aches
• Cough, sore throat, or runny nose (common in viral fever)
• Headache and fatigue
• In some cases, rashes, nausea, or joint pain may suggest dengue or chikungunya—both common in Bangalore’s rainy season

If fever lasts more than 2–3 days, consult a doctor at Shirdi Sai Hospital, New BEL Rd, without delay.

Causes

Why is fever so common in Bangalore’s monsoon?

• Viral infections like flu and viral fever spread quickly in damp conditions
• Mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue, malaria, and chikungunya rise due to stagnant water
• Contaminated food or water can cause typhoid or stomach infections
• Sudden weather changes weaken immunity, making you prone to seasonal infections
