What to do if you have an itchy throat and cough after childbirth

After giving birth, women have a lot of care to do to speed up their body's recovery. The body is relatively fragile after giving birth, especially in the cold winter, when the resistance is relatively low and it is easy to catch a cold. After a cold, it will cause an itchy throat and cough. So the editor below will explain to you in detail what to do if you have an itchy throat and cough after giving birth.

First of all, we should pay attention to persisting in outdoor activities to enhance the body's defense against diseases and avoid the occurrence of pharyngitis and laryngitis.

Secondly, develop a habit of keeping your throat clean. Rinse your throat with water before and after meals, drink more tea, and keep your throat clean. Smoking and drinking should be done in moderation, otherwise it will irritate the throat tissue and cause chronic inflammation.

If your throat is uncomfortable, itchy, dry or burning, you can use hot fumigation therapy. The method is to breathe into a steaming teacup or teapot, and the discomfort will soon disappear. You can also mix about 30 ml of compound benzoin tincture with about 500 ml of boiling water in a large pot and breathe into the hot air. It is also possible to use chrysanthemum, honeysuckle or puffed sea to soak in water and drink it as tea.

Regardless of the cause of hoarseness, the common feature is that the vocal cords and surrounding tissues are congested, swollen and painful. The following methods are more effective.

1. Eat Tremella with water. Wash and soak Tremella, tear it into strips and pieces, blanch it with boiling water, rinse it with cold water, add vinegar and eat it twice a day, with no limit on the amount of food. You will feel better after 2 days.

2. Eat celery with sauce. Wash and chop the celery, blanch it, add vinegar and eat it with sauce. Eat a small dish at a time, twice a day.

3. Drink strong herbal tea. Use boiling water to make a large cup of strong tea with 25 grams of tea leaves. Drink it regularly after it cools down.

4. Inhalation of Fengyoujing. Pour a few drops of Fengyoujing on a clean handkerchief, place it on the nostrils and inhale, 4 to 6 times a day.

5. Cold compress the neck. Soak a towel in cold or ice water and apply it to the front of the neck and throat for about 20 minutes, 3-4 times a day.

3. Then I have to try egg tea——

Egg tea (for sore throat and hoarseness)

Take a fresh egg, crack it into a rice bowl to make egg liquid, boil some boiling water, pour it into the egg liquid to make egg flowers, add a little sugar and sesame oil, drink it while it is hot. This is the legendary egg tea.

The above is the specific treatment method for postpartum itchy throat and cough. After my explanation, I hope that everyone will eat some water-rich or vitamin-rich foods according to their physical condition. This can effectively improve their immunity, promote daily metabolism, and lubricate their intestines and respiratory tract.
