How to treat edema in pregnant women

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How can I treat pregnancy edema?

Doctor's answer:

Edema during pregnancy is a physiological response caused by pregnancy and there is no need to be afraid. As long as you pay attention to rest, raise your legs when sitting or lying down, and eat less food with high salt content, the edema can be reduced and disappear. If the lower limb edema is severe or accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, or vomiting, it is necessary to consider whether other diseases may be present and seek further diagnosis and treatment at the hospital.
