Delhi has reported over 1,777 H1N1 cases and more than 2,300 Influenza A cases this year, according to health department data.
Mouth ulcers can cause pain while eating, drinking or speaking. Most heal on their own, but simple remedies may offer relief. Salt-water rinses may reduce bacteria and swelling, while honey, coconut oil, baking soda and cold water may soothe discomfort. If ulcers last more than two weeks, consult a doctor to rule out underlying causes.

Japanese researchers have identified bacteria in river sediment that can reduce PFAS, including PFOS and PFOA, known as forever chemicals. The study found some bacterial strains lowered PFAS levels in contaminated sediment and landfill leachate. Researchers say these microbes could offer a low-cost way to tackle persistent pollution, though their exact removal process needs further study.
H1N1 influenza does not always begin with the typical fever and cough. Doctors warn that fatigue, body aches, sore throat, headache, breathing difficulty, vomiting and diarrhoea can also occur. Recognising lesser-known symptoms early is important, especially in high-risk people, as influenza can sometimes lead to serious respiratory and heart complications.
Wall squats may offer a simple way to support healthy blood pressure without running or cycling. As an isometric exercise, wall squats keep muscles engaged while the body stays relatively still. Research suggests regular isometric exercise can help reduce blood pressure, making it a useful addition to a heart-healthy lifestyle.
Concerns about mobile phones, cell towers and brain cancer have persisted for years. While radiofrequency radiation has been extensively studied, current evidence has not established a clear causal link between mobile phone use and brain tumours. Researchers continue investigating long-term exposure, leaving questions about potential health risks under ongoing scientific scrutiny.

Black lung disease is surging among Appalachian coal miners, raising fresh concerns about the dangers of prolonged coal and silica dust exposure. The condition causes irreversible lung damage, breathing difficulties and progressive disability. Experts warn that continued exposure can significantly increase the risk of severe respiratory disease and premature death.
Adrenal tumours can remain undetected or mimic common health problems, making early recognition important. Resistant high blood pressure, low potassium, unexplained weight changes, excessive sweating, headaches, palpitations and hormonal symptoms may warrant medical evaluation. Doctors may recommend blood tests, hormone testing and imaging to determine whether an adrenal tumour requires treatment.
Researchers at Queen's University have developed a dissolvable 3D-printed microneedle patch designed to deliver curcumin and 5-fluorouracil directly to localised skin cancer. The technology could make treatment more targeted, less painful and minimally invasive, while reducing repeated topical applications, needle-stick risks and medical sharps waste, although further clinical testing is needed.
A man, Sulabh Mathur, shared a video showing a live worm in the food served to him at the high-end restaurant, Paul, in Gurugram.
