[|Human|] I am 27 weeks pregnant.  I had a runny nose and sore throat last Friday.  The sore throat went away, but my nose completely clogged for 5 days.  I took a benadryl but it is still clogged.  I used Afrin once, but it is still clogged to the point where I havent tasted food for 5 days and I can barely get any mucous out when I blow it.
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint it seems that you have upper respiratory tract infection also known as Common cold that is viral infection and as you are pregnant you can take only limited medications.Also, viral infection is self limiting and resolves within a day. You can take antibiotics like Amoxicillin to prevent secondary bacterial infection. Take Tylenol for pain. Do warm saline gargles, steam inhalations, saline nasal irrigation and use a humidifier in your room to breathe moist air, and it will soothe the nose and throat. You can take plenty of warm fluids and take sufficient rest. Do warm compresses over the chest and around the nose.avoid chilled and spicy foods. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards.
