Suggest Treatment For Severe Cough During Pregnancy
Hi!I m 32 years old and at 23rd weeks of pregnancy. This is my first issue.Last week my ultrasound was done with the findings of Polyhydramnios & the AFI was 30 cm.my Dr suggested me to take complete bed rest but I m also suffering from coughing for last 9 days & bed rest causes more coughing. So I can rest accordingly. How the AFI level can be reduced? My diabetes in the last week was 7.4 in random.Hemoglobin level is 9.4.
AFI has got no relation with a cough. Consult a physician and get a start on antibiotics if necessary. If AFI is high, Caesarean section might be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
