What Causes Sore Throat And Headache During 30 Weeks Of Pregnancy?
I m 30 weeks pregnant and after coming home yesterday from an exhausting road trip, I have felt some flu-like symptoms (mild fever, sore throat, headache and exhaustion) and my eyes are both completely dilated. I checked my blood pressure and it s normal, but family have commented that I look pale. Should I wait it out and look for any other symptoms or is this something I should check out immediately?

Hello,
It may be due to sore throat. For further assessment you may require complete hemogram, throat swab after ENT consultation. Continue saline or betadine gargles twice a day. Continue steam inhalation. In case of fever you may require antibiotics after consultation. Take hygienic food and water.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
