Suggest Treatment For Flu Like Symptoms, Cough And Constant Sneezing During Pregnancy
Hello, I was just wondering if someone would be able to help me out... Im 20 weeks pregnant I have flu like symptoms. Have had them for the past 5 days now, I have a terrible cough and im constantly sneezing! Oh and to add ive got pressure in my head and pains going down my right leg. All this normal?
These are not normal but at the same they are nothing to worry about either. I would just recommend the use of Tylenol and any anti-histamine line cetrizine as anti-histamines are safe to use during pregnancy. Nothing else should be tried or experimented with. Seems like either an allergy or the common cold.
Best wishes.
