 At the same time, doctors say that bathing in the cold water of the Ganges during winter and dense fog can be dangerous for the body. In such a situation, if someone feels chest pain, burning, pressure, difficulty in breathing, or pain in the hands or jaw, then do not take it lightly and contact the doctor immediately because these can be signs of a heart attack.
