When pregnant, the resistance is relatively poor and it is easy for scabies to invade the body, forming scabies. Getting scabies can be very uncomfortable, especially for pregnant women who need to find suitable treatment methods to stay away from the troubles. Let's learn about the best treatment methods for scabies in pregnant women through the following text.
Pregnant women with scabies can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine, which is relatively safe for both the pregnant woman and the fetus in the womb. Generally, if discovered early, it can be cured, but if discovered later, persisting in treatment can also control the condition. If the condition is mild, you can also apply scabies ointment, but remember to buy it from a regular pharmacy.
The principle of treating scabies is very simple, which is to eliminate the subcutaneous scabies and insect eggs. At this time, pregnant women need to develop good hygiene habits, and the underwear they wear must be boiled in hot water before wearing. And contaminated bed sheets and covers need to be continuously exposed to sunlight for at least a week before they can be used again. Families with conditions can use them after hot washing with hot water.
In terms of diet, pregnant women should not eat stimulating foods and should eat more foods containing vitamins. Moreover, pregnant women with severe conditions should immediately go to the hospital for isolation and treatment, which can help completely eliminate the source of infection. In addition, it is best for pregnant women not to have contact with the outside world until they have fully recovered to avoid worsening of their condition.
