Got a really blocked nose for the last few days and i usually keep a vicks inhaler in my bag. Now im pregnant im scared to use anything without checking. Is the inhaler okay or should i avoid it?
Haan blocked nose is so irritating na. I mostly did steam and stayed away from anything I wasnt sure about. The inhaler is mild but still, ek baar doctor se pooch lo, peace of mind milega.
Beta for a stuffy nose, steam with plain hot water and resting your head a bit raised at night helped me a lot. For the inhaler ask the doctor once, but these simple things are very safe to try.
A lot of women use the inhaler for blocked nose and its generally considered mild, but during pregnancy I'd still run it by your doctor once. For me steam inhalation worked just as well without any worry.
I can only say what I did, I avoided putting anything new and just did plain steam inhalation for my blocked nose and it cleared up. For the vicks one specifically, better to ask your gynac, I didnt want to guess.
