How to treat mild cold in early pregnancy

Patient's question:

At 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant, I have a slight cold. How can I treat it?

Doctor's answer:

Because the fifth week of pregnancy is in the early stage, do not use it blindly to avoid interfering with the fetus. If it's just a cold caused by wind and cold, such as clear nasal discharge and coughing, you can use ginger and brown sugar water to dispel the cold. If it's a wind-heat cold, such as yellow nasal discharge and coughing, you should boil pear and Fritillaria cirrhosa in water to drink. Regardless of the type of cold, you should drink more water, pay attention to rest, and can take vitamin C tablets orally. If the above symptoms do not improve or worsen, it is recommended to take traditional Chinese medicine orally in a timely manner, or you can consult a gynecologist.
