The Hajj pilgrimage, one of the largest annual religious gatherings globally, poses unique health challenges due to the convergence of millions of pilgrims from diverse backgrounds in a confined space. This study examines the patterns of injuries and emergency cases encountered during Hajj, highlighting the critical challenges within the existing health infrastructure. Key findings indicate that musculoskeletal injuries, crush injuries, heat-related illnesses, and gastrointestinal disorders are among the most prevalent health issues faced by pilgrims. Factors such as overcrowding, limited accessibility to medical facilities, inadequate coordination among healthcare providers, insufficient training of personnel, and cultural barriers exacerbate these challenges. Additionally, the psychological stress experienced by pilgrims is often overlooked, contributing to a heightened risk of mental health issues. To improve emergency response and healthcare delivery, the study proposes strategies including increasing the number of medical facilities, enhancing emergency response coordination, providing specialized training for healthcare workers, integrating mental health support, and conducting public health education campaigns. By addressing these challenges, stakeholders can significantly enhance the safety and well-being of millions of pilgrims, ensuring a more effective health response during future Hajj seasons. |
