“Nine-tenths of our sickness can be prevented by the right-thinking plus right hygiene - nine-tenths of it!” - Henry Miller
Improved sanitation and hygiene also plays a vital role in reducing Anemia, especially in children. According to the National Family Health Survey 2015-16, only 50% of households in India use an improved sanitation facility. It is really important to maintain proper hygiene. Most anemic patients also suffer from worm infestation and gastrointestinal diseases and they need to be given doses of deworming medicines. Small children often play in the mud and catch diseases. All our patients would also be given proper treatment for such diseases. They would also be educated to improve and maintain proper hygiene.
