Patient's question:
About 21 weeks pregnant, coughing for more than a week has not disappeared. The doctor prescribed cold medicine and Beile. After taking it for two days, there was no improvement, and the cough became worse, especially at night. The throat itches, and I can't stop coughing! I don't know if it will affect the baby. Is there any solution? Urgent!Doctor's answer:
Narrating that I am 21 weeks pregnant, I have been coughing quite severely these past two days. What should I do in this situation? I suggest you can take some licorice tablets, preferably under the guidance of a professional physician. It is important to drink plenty of water. You can cook honey and pears together and drink it. This might be caused by indigestion, so try to avoid spicy and irritating foods as much as possible, and always maintain regular bowel movements. The above is my advice on this matter. I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
