Every year, Diwali is a festival that is widely celebrated across India. Known to as the "Festival of Lights", it brings joy and togetherness but not without its fair share of smoke and noise pollution, which only gets worse for people who are already suffering from related diseases.

In the days following the celebrations, many individuals, particularly between 35-65 years, experience a surge in respiratory problems. Exposure to smoke, dust, and particulate matter from fireworks, combined with seasonal pollution, can exacerbate underlying conditions and lead to new illnesses. 

Experts urge people to be aware of warning signs and seek timely medical care to avoid serious complications.
