Patient's question:
Toothache. Four months pregnant, went to the hospital today, and the doctor said I need to have my wisdom teeth removed. Anesthesia was administered. It was injected into my face. I want to ask what the effects are? Besides the prescribed medication, Paracetamol capsules and Vitamin C, will taking these have any impact on the baby?Doctor's answer:
The dosage of anesthetic medication is very small, and after passing through the placenta, the drug components are already minimal. It is a common understanding that during pregnancy, one should avoid taking anti-inflammatory drugs. Vitamin C is definitely not harmful to the fetus, and there are currently no clear reports of cephalexin causing fetal malformations or other negative effects. It is recommended to avoid taking cephalexin for now. Using a light saltwater solution to wash your face daily can also have an anti-inflammatory effect. Only take antibiotics if the inflammation cannot be controlled. The above advice is for the question "Will a toothache during pregnancy affect the child?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
