Patient's question:
Symptom Description: Diarrhea for 1 day, lower abdomen with aching pain. Past Treatment and Effect: Just went to see a doctor today. What kind of help do you want: Can I receive penicillin infusion? Will it affect the fetus?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is still possible to use penicillin for inflammation according to medical advice during pregnancy, and medication taken as prescribed generally does not affect the health of the fetus. When a pregnant woman gets a cold, it can have two effects on the fetus: first, the virus may directly enter the fetus through the placenta, potentially causing congenital heart disease, cleft lip, hydrocephalus, anencephaly, and microcephaly; second, the indirect effects of high fever and metabolic disorders caused by the cold, as the high fever and toxins can stimulate uterine contractions, leading to miscarriage and premature birth. Therefore, it is important to prevent colds. Here are several treatment methods: for mild colds with only sneezing, runny nose, and mild cough, medication is not necessary. Rest and drinking plenty of water often help the condition improve on its own. If symptoms do not improve, traditional Chinese medicine such as Banlangen granules can be used.
