Even after two years, the Covid-19 pandemic still prevails and the effects of it are seen in people who have suffered from it a few months ago but still continue to deal with it in more ways than one. With the increase in the number of people who died from heart attacks in the first half of 2021, city doctors tell us about the possibility and causes of heart attacks in youngsters who have suffered from Covid-19, and why they need to be cautious.  
 
The city is also right in the middle of its monsoon season and that means the presence of seasonal diseases and other kinds of infections, that we may often take for granted. We spoke to a city-based gynaecologist to understand why vaginal infections are common during this time. They also share measures to prevent them. At the same time, the city has also been alerted by the civic body about a rise in the cases of leptospirosis – a disease that is known to affect people during the rainy season. In a simple explainer, experts tell us about the causes, symptoms and preventive measures.

While being a fashionista, it is also important to not forget about taking care of your skin, especially because we all have different challenges with it.

It is also the season to find comfort in delicious food and there is nothing like indulging in some rasam but with a twist by using ingredients you may have not heard of before. So, step into the kitchen and try these recipes out throughout the season.
