Doctor Jiang Guan Yu reminded of the overall increase in respiratory infectious diseases this summer, with more cases of cellulitis. The hot weather in Taiwan has led to high temperatures, reaching 36-38 degrees Celsius, prompting Doctor Jiang to analyze the correlation between heatwaves and inflammation. Research has shown that heat stress can increase inflammation markers, causing a higher risk of infections and inflammations, especially for vulnerable populations like the elderly. Recommendations include staying indoors during peak heat, seeking shade, wearing light and breathable clothing, and staying hydrated to reduce exposure and risks during heatwaves.
