Tips for pregnant women to treat itchy throats due to colds

If a patient develops an itchy throat after catching a cold, it may be caused by a combination of inflammation of the throat, pharyngitis, etc. You can use some medicines for treating colds, reducing fever and pharyngitis, such as compound acetaminophen capsules, Ganmaoling granules, Niuhuangshangqing tablets, Huasu tablets, honeysuckle lozenges, etc. Patients should also drink more water, quit smoking and drinking, and avoid eating spicy and irritating foods. After the above treatment, if the symptoms do not improve, go to the hospital for examination immediately. If necessary, go to the ENT department for electronic laryngoscope examination. After confirming the actual condition, give corresponding treatment.

Pregnant women with tonsillitis and pain should be careful to avoid taking medicines that may affect pregnancy, as it is taboo to take medicines during pregnancy. Pharyngitis is generally caused by a viral infection. Chinese herbs and prescriptions can be used, such as Xiao Chaihu Granules, Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid and Chuanbei Loquat Dew; gargle with borax solution of spinulosa, warm salt water or warm water; atomization of Chinese herbs for clearing away heat and removing internal heat with saline; lozenges such as Huasu Tablets, Jinsuozi Lozenges, Xiguashuang Lozenges; local massage of acupoints (rubbing and pressing the Neiguan acupoint), etc.

A cold is caused by a weakened immune system, which causes bacteria or viruses to invade the body through the respiratory system. Symptoms may include nasal congestion, runny nose, fever, sore throat, and even limb pain. If you have a sore throat due to a cold, it is best not to take oral medication on your own to avoid causing harm to the fetus. An effective dietary therapy method is to boil onion roots, ginger slices, and brown sugar in water, which can have the effect of dispelling cold and sweating. For sore throat, you can boil pears in water and drink it, which has a certain effect on relieving sore throat.

In addition, you should pay attention to drinking more hot water and eating more fresh fruits and vegetables. Generally, a fever and cold can be cured in a week. If the symptoms persist, it is recommended to go to the respiratory department of the hospital for treatment and take medication safely under the guidance of a doctor.
