Patient's question:
What illness do I have?Bitter taste in mouth, dry throat, upper abdominal pain and burning after eating, sometimes causing chest tightness. Symptoms slightly improve after lying down for a while. First follow-up question: I recently had an ultrasound of the gallbladder, and the doctor said there were no issues.
Does Xiao Chaihu have an effect on pregnant women? Can a pregnant woman at 85 days gestation undergo an endoscopy?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, you can take traditional Chinese medicine such as Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid or Banlangen Granules, Daqingye, and Xiaochaihu Granules, which are all usable. If you also have tonsillitis and have no history of allergies, you can use penicillin. The meaning of "pregnant women and lactating women should use with caution" is that it is best not to use it or take it under the guidance of a doctor. It is recommended to follow the doctor's advice when taking medication. During pregnancy, pay attention to a nutritious diet, get adequate rest, and avoid exposure to radioactive or radiative substances. Do not eat spicy or cold foods, and also avoid taking blood-activating traditional Chinese medicines.
