Pregnant With Sore Throat, Stuffed Nose And Cough. History Of Pneumonia And Bronchitis. Need Medical Attention?
I m almost 19 weeks pregnant. I have a history of pneumonia and bronchitis . Three days ago I developed an incredibly sore throat . Then my nose was all stuffy/runny at the same time. I also have this horrible cough with mucus . Since 24 hours ago, when I cough I have pain in my chest about the sternum area. I also cough so hard I gag and feel like vomiting. At what point should I see a doctor?
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Better to get examined now. As infection in the body can affect the general condition and can also lead to premature uterine contractions.
So consult gynecologist and take antibiotic course.
By taking ante-emetics and antacids you can get some relief.
Take care.
