Why Summer Pediatric Care Matters in the UAE
The UAE's summer heat can be intense, with temperatures
often soaring above 45°C. Children, especially infants and toddlers, are more
vulnerable to heat-related illnesses such as dehydration, heat exhaustion, and
sunburn. Proper pediatric care during this time isn't just important—it's
essential.
"Pediatric summer care in Sharjah goes beyond
hydration. It's about creating a safe environment for growth and development
during a very harsh season," says Dr. Navaneetha.
Top 5 Summer Health Tips for Children
1. Hydration is Key
Children often forget to drink enough water. Ensure they
consume plenty of fluids—water, fresh juices, and electrolyte-rich drinks - especially
if they're playing outdoors.
2. Sun Protection
Always apply child-safe sunscreen with SPF 50+ and dress
your child in light, breathable cotton clothes. Hats and UV-protection
sunglasses are also recommended.
3. Avoid Peak Heat Hours
Outdoor activities should be limited to early mornings or
after sunset. The peak heat between 11 AM and 4 PM can lead to rapid
dehydration or even heatstroke.
4. Nutritious Summer Diet
A balanced diet with fruits like watermelon, cucumbers, and
oranges helps keep the body cool. Avoid processed snacks and sugary sodas.
5. Routine Pediatric Check-Ups
Summer can trigger allergies, asthma flare-ups, and viral
infections. Regular visits to a pediatrician ensure timely diagnosis and
treatment.
