Can Children Die While Watching Reels: Amroha district of Uttar Pradesh is once again in the headlines. Earlier, a case of death of a girl due to fast food had come to light and now the news of death of a 10 year old child has come to light while watching the reel. According to reports, the child was watching reels on the phone as usual, when suddenly he fell unconscious and died. In a moment the laughing and playing family turned into mourning. Let us know whether someone can really die while watching a reel.
Did the child have any previous problems?
According to reports, the child’s family members said that he did not have any problem and was completely healthy. While watching the reel, he suddenly fell backwards and became unconscious. The family first took him to a private hospital near the village, but seeing his serious condition, he was referred to another private hospital. His condition deteriorated with time and even before reaching the hospital, his condition became critical. Doctors declared him dead after investigation.
The child’s father says that he never had any serious illness and was completely fit. In this case, doctors have suspected a heart attack, although it is not yet clear what was the real cause of death. There is an atmosphere of mourning in the entire village due to the news of the death of a child at such a young age.
Have such cases come before?
There are very few such cases in which a person suddenly dies while watching a reel. There have been many cases of death due to being hit by a vehicle while making a reel or while watching a reel while walking on the road, but cases of death just by watching a reel are almost negligible.
What do experts say?
Dr. Ramchandra Singh, senior physician of Samastipur District Hospital, clearly says that “Just watching a reel cannot be the direct cause of someone’s death. There is no evidence in medical science that watching a mobile screen can suddenly lead to loss of life.” According to experts, the real cause of death in such cases is often some hidden medical problem, such as sudden cardiac arrest, congenital heart disease, electrical disturbances in the heart or brain-related problems. Symptoms of these problems are not visible at first and the child may appear completely healthy. Doctors say that excessive emotional excitement or sudden stress can trigger a pre-existing heart condition in rare cases, but this is extremely rare. Heart attack in a 10 year old child is considered very rare. According to Dr. Ramchandra Singh, watching the reel in the Amroha case could be just a coincidence and not the cause of death. The real reason will be clear only after post mortem and medical examination.
