What to do if you have a cold or cough during late pregnancy

Some pregnant women suffer from colds and coughs in the late stages of pregnancy, which seriously affects their physical health. Pregnant women cannot take medicines without authorization during pregnancy, as this will seriously affect their physical health. However, measures must be taken for treatment. So what should you do if you have a cold and cough in the late stages of pregnancy? Let me introduce this issue to you below.

This depends on whether it is a wind-cold cold or a wind-heat cold. If you catch a cold due to wind or cold, it is usually caused by catching cold, such as using an electric fan for too long, setting the air conditioner on low, catching a cold when going out, etc. You usually have symptoms such as clear nasal discharge, low fever or no fever, and clear sputum. You can take oral cold and heat-clearing capsules or drink some brown sugar ginger soup to try. Wind-heat cold is generally caused by stuffiness and heat, with symptoms such as yellow nasal discharge, high fever, etc. The medication can be Shuanghuanglian oral liquid, and the food can be some mung bean soup, tomatoes, bitter gourd and other foods. If you have a cough, you can eat some steamed pears with rock sugar.

It is usually a cold caused by wind and cold. A good way to treat a cold caused by wind and cold is: if you don’t have heart disease, boil water with shredded ginger, jujube and brown sugar and drink it. If you have a fever, soak your feet in water with peppercorns to sweat a little. That's it! I treated my symptoms this way and the results were immediate. Coughs in this season are usually caused by cold wind invading the lungs. There is a better way to cure coughs: drink steamed garlic water. Just chop a few cloves of garlic, put them in a covered bowl and add water. Put it in a steamer and steam for ten minutes, then drink the water. This method is most effective for cough caused by cold. In autumn, you should protect your lungs and avoid eating cold food. You have to eat according to the properties of food. Only eat foods with warm properties and avoid foods with cold properties. In addition, there are four acupoints on the human body that are most susceptible to invasion of wind and cold, namely Mingmen, Dazhui, Yongquan and Shenque (navel). Pay attention to these acupoints and keep them warm.

The above is my opinion on this issue. If a pregnant woman has a cold or cough, she should take timely treatment to ensure her health. Some pregnant women even have miscarriages, so pregnant women should pay attention to timely medical treatment to ensure their health.
