It takes about ten months from pregnancy to giving birth to a baby. During this period, pregnant women may catch a cold. After catching a cold, some pregnant women may experience persistent low-grade fever symptoms, feeling particularly uncomfortable and unwilling to take medication easily. So, what should pregnant women do if their cold persists and low-grade fever persists?
1. Water vapor: If a pregnant woman only has a mild cold and fever, accompanied by nasal congestion symptoms, water vapor can be used to alleviate the symptoms. For example, adding about 50 degrees of plain water to a thermos and placing it under the mouth and nose to breathe the water vapor emitted by the hot water.
2. Drinking chicken soup: Pregnant women can drink some chicken soup appropriately when they have a cold. Chicken soup not only contains rich nutrients, but also helps to clear respiratory viruses and effectively replenish the water lost in the body during colds and fever.
3. Eat more fruits and vegetables: Fruits and vegetables can not only help supplement the nutrients needed by the body, but also help alleviate symptoms such as colds and fever.
4. Light diet: During a cold or fever, it is important to maintain a light diet and eat less salty, spicy, greasy, and cold drinks to promote physical recovery.
5. Avoid fatigue: When suffering from a cold or fever, it is important to rest more and ensure sufficient sleep. Good sleep is an effective method for treating colds.
6. Appropriate medication: If the cold is severe, you can follow the doctor's advice to take medication appropriately.
