hi
any infection in diabetics , u need to be careful.
because ur healing capacity and resistance get lowered a bit .
it's better to take appropriate antibiotics after consulting ENT surgeon.
penicillins are better choice .
they don't interfere with ur pregnancy .
do salt water gargling thrice daily ( safe practice )
