Which diseases can occur?

Jail life is completely different from common life. There is neither food and water here, nor a better environment of cleanliness. At the same time, congestion, mental stress and limited health facilities together affect the health of the prisoners. This is the reason that many types of diseases are found in prisoners living in jail for a long time (eg 23 months).

TB

In jails, crowds are more and less ventilation, due to which TB is the most common disease. According to the WHO report, the risk of TB in jail is 10 to 20 times more than the common people.

Skin disease

Skin problems like scabies, fungal infections, itching and ringworm are very common due to lack of cleanliness and more prisoners living together.

Mental health issue

Prolonged imprisonment can cause severe mental illnesses like depression, anxiety, panic attack and even schizophrenia. India’s National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) report has recorded high levels of mental illnesses in jails.

Digestive diseases

Dirty and identical diet, low nutrition and water scarcity make constipation, acidity, ulcers and liver diseases common.

Asthama; Respiratory disease

Bronchitis, asthma and other lung diseases are also seen in prisoners due to dust, moisture and dirt.

High blood pressure and diabetes

Life diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes can increase due to prolonged stress, wrong eating and lack of physical activities.

Joints and bones problems

Lack of limited space of gel and lack of physical activity increases problems like tightness in the body, joint pain and arthritis.

Anemia and malnutrition

Prison food is often not rich in nutrition, which leads to deficiency of iron, vitamins and protein. Especially anemia is found more among women and young prisoners.

Eye and teeth problems

Due to lack of right health checkup for a long time, the eyesight, toothache and gum problems also become common.

What do doctors say?

Dr. Mohan Bairwa, Senior Doctor of Community Medicine Department at SMS Medical College, Jaipur, says that prisoners living in jail for a long time are the highest risk of mental stress, TB and skin disease. The main reason is congestion and lack of health service. Medical screening and mental health counseling of such prisoners is necessary from time to time.
