In daily life, rhinitis patches are commonly used to treat symptoms such as colds and nasal congestion. However, since pregnancy is a special physiological stage, will long-term use of rhinitis patches have any impact on the baby? Let me introduce it below.

Can pregnant women use nasal ventilator patches?

Pregnant women should try not to use nasal ventilation patches when they have a cold. If their nose is blocked, they can rinse their nasal cavity with light salt water. If your nasal congestion is caused by a cold, you can use cold and heat-clearing granules. Pay more attention to weather changes and try not to get rhinitis.

Four ways to relieve rhinitis during pregnancy

If the symptoms of nasal congestion are severe, you should not rub it hard, because the nasal blood vessels become congested and thickened, and they can easily be irritated and ruptured and bleed. Once bleeding occurs, pinching the nose wing with your hand can quickly stop the bleeding. If it is difficult to stop, you can stuff a small ball of clean cotton ball into the nostril, press tightly for 5-10 minutes and cover the nose bridge. If the bleeding is heavy or often recurs, you should go to the hospital for examination in time, and pay attention to check whether there are other diseases such as pregnancy-induced hypertension and gestational hemangioma.

At this time, you can apply a hot towel to your nose or use hot steam to fumigate your nose, which can relieve the symptoms. Remember not to use nasal drops, such as ephedrine, nasal drops, etc., especially for pregnant mothers with gestational hypertension, because ephedrine drugs will increase blood pressure and increase the impact on the fetus; do not use hormones, antihistamines and other anti-allergic drugs at will, so as not to harm the fetus after taking them. If the condition requires non-medication, it must be used under the guidance and advice of a doctor.
