Patient's question:
A week ago, my eyes would tear up when I yawned, and they would hurt so much that I couldn't open them. My head also ached sometimes, and my gums would hurt. The doctor took my pulse and diagnosed that my liver fire was too strong. He prescribed three medications: Cephalexin, Mingmu Dihuang Pills, and Long Gan Xie Dan Pills. I am currently breastfeeding and have been feeding my baby night milk for two months, which has left me sleep-deprived. I am wondering if taking these medications will affect my baby.Doctor's answer:
Dear Inquirer,It's best to avoid oral medications as much as possible, as they can also be excreted in breast milk. Under current circumstances, it's recommended to temporarily stop breastfeeding. Once the medication is discontinued, you can focus on resuming breastfeeding. This is safer for the baby.
The above advice is for the question, "What should I do if my eyes tear up and hurt when I yawn a week ago?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
