My nose has been blocked for like two weeks now and its so annoying, cant sleep properly. I dont want to take any medicine without asking my doc. What did u all do for the stuffiness, any safe home things?
My app actually had this listed as pregnancy rhinitis, super common. Saline nasal spray, steam and drinking warm fluids worked for me. Avoid any decongestant unless your gynac okays it.
Pregnancy stuffy nose is common because of the hormones. Steam, staying hydrated, and sleeping with head slightly raised helped me. Please dont take any cold medicine on your own, only what your doctor says.
Steam and saline drops are safe, but if you also have fever or it doesnt clear up please see your doctor, dont self medicate. Some normal cold tablets are not advised in pregnancy. Better get it checked.
Beta bhaap lo, steam is the safest old remedy for blocked nose. Warm water with a little ajwain steam used to help me. But no medicines without asking your doctor, hormonal congestion is normal in pregnancy.
The blocked nose in pregnancy is so annoying na, i had it for weeks. Steam inhalation and a saline spray helped me a lot, both totally gentle. Keep a humidifier or just sit in a steamy bathroom.
