Patient's question:
Because I have been pregnant for over a month, I have a cold and a fever. I went to a small clinic for injections, but after three days of treatment, it didn't get better. The doctor said to be very careful with medication and replied slowly, using vitamin-like medications. I am wondering if this will affect the fetus?Doctor's answer:
Cold during pregnancy can be treated with medication. If you catch a common cold in the first one or two months of pregnancy, you can rest, drink more water, keep the room well-ventilated, and consider using traditional Chinese medicine that has the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, and anti-viral properties, which can help alleviate symptoms and shorten the duration of the illness. Xiao Chaihu granules and Banlangen granules are widely used, and Ganmao Qingre granules can also be chosen.
