Patient's question:
Female, 27 years old, has been experiencing lower abdominal pain 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, how should one treat a cold in the early stages of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
At this time, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up. If it is found to be a viral cold, use antiviral medication under the guidance of a doctor to avoid infecting the fetus. If it is not a viral infection, treatment can be temporarily avoided because medication may affect the baby's growth and development. Pay attention to keeping warm, eat more fruits and vegetables, and drink more water. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to go to a regular, top-tier hospital as soon as possible for systematic and standardized examinations according to their own condition to achieve symptomatic treatment and recover quickly.
