Patient's question:
I am a 47-year-old woman, and my mental state has not been very good recently. I don't know why, but I would like to ask: What should a pregnant woman do if she has a sore throat, cough, and phlegm?Doctor's answer:
Immunity in pregnant women tends to rise during pregnancy. In dry weather, they are more prone to experiencing symptoms such as stomach upset, colds, and cough with phlegm again.If a pregnant woman coughs excessively or too intensely, it can increase abdominal pressure, potentially leading to miscarriage or premature birth. The question of what to eat to quickly alleviate cough with phlegm is a topic of great concern for expectant mothers. Below are some simple and effective methods:
1. Ginger Juice Mixed with Honey: Half a teaspoon of ginger juice, one teaspoon of honey. Take with warm water. Consume twice a day, in the morning and evening. This mixture helps treat cough with phlegm in pregnant women by soothing the stomach, moisturizing the lungs, resolving phlegm, clearing the lungs, and dispelling cold.
