When a pregnant teacher coughs, the first thing that comes to mind may be taking medication to solve the situation. But we all know that taking too much medication can have a significant impact on the fetus, so we try our best not to choose this treatment method. Pregnant women with anemia can actually be improved through diet. Although this method has a slow effect, it is the healthiest. Does constant coughing in pregnant women have any impact on the fetus?
Cough treatment methods
1. When mild cough is detected, doctors generally do not recommend using medication to treat mild colds and coughs. Drinking plenty of cold water can alleviate cough symptoms.
2. Boil water with pear, rock sugar, and red dates: To make it, cut the pear into small pieces and cook it together with the red dates. Add rock sugar and continue cooking. This is the simplest and most practical method. Drinking a few cups a day has a therapeutic effect on coughing.
3. Pregnant women with bronchitis, pharyngitis, and respiratory infections can also cause coughing. Drinking some light salt water in moderation can be very helpful and can also have a preventive effect.
Different causes, different treatments
1. Cold
Cold is one of the main causes of coughing in pregnant women. Women who catch a cold during pregnancy should not use medication casually. Because drugs not only enhance pregnant women's resistance and kill bacteria, but also pose a threat to the fetus.
Coughing caused by a cold in pregnant women can often be treated with dietary therapy, such as boiling red dates and pears in water and drinking them daily. Dietary therapy is more effective for cough caused by a cold. If the cold is severe, pregnant women should seek medical attention promptly, follow medical advice, and use medication for treatment.
2. Body deficiency
Some pregnant women may cough during pregnancy, but the cough disappears automatically after giving birth. This is because after a woman becomes pregnant, her body becomes weak in yin, causing discomfort in the five organs, lack of nourishment in the lungs, and disturbance of phlegm and fire. Pregnant women may cough incessantly.
For cough caused by Yin deficiency in the body, pregnant women should consume more foods that moisten the lungs and are light, and avoid oily and spicy foods. Highly recommended are foods that nourish the lungs, such as Chuanbei stewed pear and rock sugar stewed pear.
3. Infection
During pregnancy, respiratory infections, bronchitis, and pharyngitis can also cause coughing in pregnant women. Expectant mothers are not allowed to take medication without authorization and must follow the doctor's advice after diagnosis.
Suggestion for expectant mothers: regularly rinsing with salt water can prevent respiratory infections, and honey lemon water can also alleviate symptoms of sore throat.
Pregnant women and teachers coughing must have some impact on babies, we have a general understanding now! In addition, pregnant women should know how to take good care of themselves during pregnancy to avoid encountering any problems that we find difficult to solve and may regret. It will be really difficult to solve the problems then!
