Many women rarely catch colds, but after pregnancy, they will frequently catch colds. This is mainly due to a decrease in immunity after pregnancy, and if one does not pay attention to protecting their body, they are prone to catching a cold. Pregnant women have a cold that is difficult to treat, and there are many medications that cannot be taken. Here's how to deal with cold and runny nose during pregnancy?
When pregnant women have a cold and runny nose:
1. Firstly, it is important to drink plenty of water. Drinking water can eliminate toxins from the body through urine, thus avoiding toxins from affecting fetal development.
2. Secondly, it is important to rest more. Pregnant women should not work too hard, especially not stay up late. They should rest well. Rest can help pregnant women improve their immunity, and once their immunity is enhanced, they can clear the virus.
3. Another thing is to start with diet, eating more foods high in vitamins. During pregnancy, it is important to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, which are rich in vitamins. Vitamins can also enhance immunity, strengthen resistance, and promote tissue repair.
4. Starting from clothing, pregnant women should learn to take care of themselves and know how to add or remove clothing. In this big winter, it is important to keep warm and avoid worsening the cold and runny nose caused by wind and cold. If it's in summer, you have to escape the heat.
If a pregnant woman has a cold, runny nose, and fever, it is best to go to the hospital for blood tests. Based on the test results, the pregnant woman should receive targeted treatment. Remind pregnant women not to blindly use medication to avoid harming the fetus.
