Suggest Treatment For Cough, Cold And Fever During Pregnancy

I am 6 weeks pregnant. Mild intermittent asthmatic. I have a cold for a week. Had coughed up some mucus the first 5 days. Last two days the cough is unproductive and somewhat persistent. i have a 99 fever and am having to use my inhaler every 4 hours round the clock. which is uncharacteristic with a cold.

Hello,

You may be suffering from lower respiratory tract infection. You have to avoid cool drinks and refrigerated water. Use water vapor inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. If symptoms don't improve, it is better to consult your physician rather than prescribing medicine online. He will examine how severe it is then treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu , Internal Medicine Specialist
