Pregnant mothers often feel unbearable itching in their abdomen during pregnancy, especially after 6 months of pregnancy. At this time, most pregnant mothers will scratch it with their hands, but in fact this will make the itching worse. What should pregnant mothers do when their abdomen is itchy? Pregnancy skin disease More than 15% of pregnant women may encounter this skin disease. The whole body may itch, usually occurring during the sixth or seventh month of pregnancy. There are no changes on the skin other than itching, and no rashes or blisters appear. The cause of the disease is generally believed to be related to the increase in estrogen during pregnancy and has no effect on the fetus. [Coping strategies]: Pay attention to hygiene during pregnancy and keep the skin surface clean. In winter, you can apply some moisturizer after taking a bath. For stretch marks on the abdomen, you can apply a small amount of olive oil to prevent or relieve local itching. Do not scratch with your hands to avoid the formation of scabs, which will aggravate the symptoms. You can use a warm towel to apply a hot compress and then apply some calamine lotion. Some chemical stimulation and bad hygiene habits such as wearing non-breathable synthetic underwear can also induce itching, so you should pay attention to it. Pregnancy rash About 2% of pregnant women may develop the disease, usually between the fourth and ninth months of pregnancy. Small red rashes appear on the skin, most often on the extremities, and look like insect bites. Some pregnant women think that the problem is caused by lice or fleas on their pets, but in fact it is caused by the pregnancy itself and has no effect on the fetus. [Coping strategies]: To prevent and treat pregnancy rashes, first of all, you should keep your skin clean and bathe regularly. If you get a rash, you must not scratch it with your hands. It is best to see a doctor immediately and check what the disease is before taking any medication. Indiscriminate use of medication may aggravate the condition. The best way to prevent and treat rashes is to pay attention to personal hygiene during pregnancy and clean your body regularly. 55 How to prevent miscarriage |
