My nose is so blocked since two days and i cant sleep properly. I keep reaching for the vicks inhaler out of habit but now im pregnant and got scared, is it ok to use this small thing? Anyone used it during pregnancy?
Haan I used steam inhalation a lot when my nose was blocked and it gave so much relief na. For any product like inhaler though, just confirm once with your doctor. Plain steam is the safest first thing.
I leaned on warm water steam and rest for congestion mostly. For specific products I'd ask the doctor rather than assume. If you get high fever or breathlessness, please see your gynac.
Most external things people use casually, but in pregnancy I'd still run it by your doctor quickly. Steam and staying hydrated help a lot for a blocked nose. A two minute call settles the inhaler doubt.
