Does having pharyngitis affect pregnancy?

Pharyngitis is a very common inflammation in life. Once you suffer from pharyngitis, you will feel discomfort in the throat, such as pain or itching, and often feel that the throat is very dry, or feels that there is something blocking it. In addition, the patient will also have symptoms such as fever, loss of appetite, etc. So if pharyngitis occurs during pregnancy, what harm will it cause?

Does having pharyngitis affect pregnancy?

Pharyngitis in pregnant women does not have any significant impact on the fetus. Pharyngitis is generally characterized by discomfort in the throat, dryness, itching, swelling, excessive secretions and burning pain, nausea, a foreign body sensation, and inability to cough up or swallow. In severe cases, difficulty swallowing may affect the nutritional intake of pregnant women and lead to reduced nutrient absorption by the fetus.

Patients with chronic pharyngitis can become pregnant and it will not affect the fetus. They should drink more water, avoid eating spicy, raw, cold or irritating foods, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, supplement vitamins, and improve their immunity.

This does not affect pregnancy. According to the situation, local treatment is recommended, such as taking lysozyme tablets, Dumifen throat tablets, iodine lozenges, Liushen pills, etc., and taking throat-clearing and throat-relief granules at the same time.

Guidance:

Avoid spicy food and eat more green vegetables, such as carrots, green vegetables, etc. Eat more fruits that are high in water: oranges, watermelons, peaches, etc.

Chronic pharyngitis is not a hereditary disease, but is caused by exposure to complex pathogenic factors during the growth process.

Guidance:

If pharyngitis is not serious, it mainly depends on maintenance. If you don’t take medicine, it will not affect the fetus. Some medicines have no effect on children, such as some herbal throat lozenges.

If you only suffer from pharyngitis and do not choose any medicine to treat it, then the impact on pregnant women should not be great. However, it does not mean that you do not need to treat pharyngitis during pregnancy. This is wrong and you still have to insist on treatment.

However, you cannot blindly choose drug treatment during pregnancy. During treatment, you can only use some drugs that will not harm the child, and the type of medicine should be traditional Chinese medicine, which will not have any effect on the child.

When choosing Chinese medicine for diseases such as pharyngitis, you need medicines that can clear away heat and reduce fire, and reduce inflammation. Therefore, honeysuckle can be used in the treatment process. Eating more vegetables and fruits is actually a good way to relieve pharyngitis. It is recommended that you stick to it.

Note:

When you suffer from pharyngitis, you must control the time you talk and not talk too much. If you talk too much, it will cause discomfort in your throat and may aggravate the occurrence of pharyngitis.
