Patient's question:
I am 3.5 months pregnant. Due to high fever that lasted for 2 days and 2 nights, I was given penicillin saline infusion. Could you please tell me if penicillin and high fever have any impact on the baby in my stomach? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
Avoid taking medication as much as possible during pregnancy. Here's a good method I can share with you: Warm high-proof alcohol and pour it from the Dazhui point down to the coccyx. Massage the area with the alcohol until it feels warm. Repeat this process for two nights, ensuring your palms and soles are also massaged until they feel warm. The fever will naturally subside.Go to the hospital for a flu test. However, there's no need to panic—the testing process is very quick, taking less than a minute. The lab test may take about an hour if there aren't many people. If the result is negative, you can treat it like a regular cold. Follow your doctor's advice during pregnancy. If the result is positive, take it seriously.
