Jaipur : Jaipur is a very beautiful city to visit. Pigeons add to the glory of tourism here, due to which the pictures come out beautiful. However, this beauty is also harming your health! In fact, expert doctors say that due to the increasing number of pigeons in the city, lung diseases are also increasing. Many such patients are coming to government and private hospitals who are suffering from lungs. Pigeons could be the main reason for this. According to the report, many patients are coming to the hospitals who are suffering from cough along with difficulty in breathing.
Serious lung diseases caused by pigeons
An example of this has also come to light. A person who was having difficulty in breathing for the last one year was recently diagnosed with ILD (Interstitial Lung Disease). He used to feed pigeons at Ramniwas Bagh for the last 3-4 years and there are many pigeons living near his house also. Earlier, the patient was being given an inhaler on suspicion of asthma, but it did not provide much benefit. After this, after testing, it was found that the patient has hypersensitivity pneumonitis, which is a serious lung disease. This disease occurs due to dust, fungus, bird feces or any allergy. After this the doctors advised him to stay away from bird feces and feathers.
What is ILD?
ILD i.e. Interstitial Lungs Disease is a disease which is caused by dry feces and feathers of pigeons.
