How to treat ascites at 24 weeks of pregnancy

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child. I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has had a series of conditions, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will become worse. How should I handle ascites at 24 weeks of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello. This condition can be seen in diseases such as pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, cysts, myomas, and pelvic effusion, which can lead to it. You can visit a gynecology department for an examination, such as an ultrasound, to identify the cause before starting medication. It is also possible that there may be a risk of cerebral palsy, in which case a CT scan can be performed. Cerebral palsy treatment aims to improve motor function by increasing joint mobility, adjusting muscle tone, and enhancing motor control, coordination, strength, and endurance to improve self-care abilities. Additionally, medication can be used. Commonly used medications include neurotrophic drugs for the brain and muscle relaxants. Medication should only be used when necessary.
