Suggest Treatment For Coughing Of Mucus During Pregnancy
Question: Hi, I am currently 9 weeks pregnant. I have had one live birth and 3 miscarriage. I have a sore chest and am wheezing when trying to breath. I have also been coughing mucus. I will see my doctor in 2 days will I be OK to wait until then. Or could this cause miscarriage?
Brief Answer:
You should wait. You will be alright.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
Since you are 9 weeks pregnant, clinical examination of respiratory system is must for diagnosis and treatment. Chest x ray is contraindicated.
No need to worry much about miscarriage as this will not cause miscarriage. So no need to think in this direction.
If your symptoms are not much worrisome then you should wait for 2 days and then consult your doctor after 2 days. Drink plenty of water and eat healthy.
But, if you feel very sick and worsening of symptoms then consult doctor immediately.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health.
Thanks.
