What should I do if I have a cold during pregnancy and it won't go away?

Patient's question:

Female, 25 years old, has been experiencing pain in the lower abdomen every day recently, especially a dull cramping pain on the left side. She also feels a sense of fullness in her breasts. Now she has caught a cold and is very worried. She wants to ask, what should she do if she gets a cold while pregnant and it doesn't get better?

Doctor's answer:

The possibility of a cold causing dizziness is not very high. It is mainly considered to be due to low blood pressure or anemia. You can measure your blood pressure to check, and if there is no issue with your blood pressure, have a blood test to see if you have anemia. For the cold, taking some cold medicine orally is usually sufficient. You can take Sanjiu Cold Relief Granules or Liandisan Loquat Paste. If you have phlegm, you can also take some anti-inflammatory medication orally.
