I'm pregnant, and I've developed nasal congestion that I didn't experience before.

It's 'pregnancy rhinitis.' It develops when blood vessels in the nasal mucosa swell due to increased estrogen. While it clears up completely after delivery, if it's bothersome during pregnancy, manage it with topical traditional Korean herbal remedies or acupuncture, which are safe for the fetus.

호르몬의 영향으로 코 점막까지 부어오를 수 있습니다.

  • 약물: 시중의 비충혈 제거제(오트리빈 등)는 태반 혈류에 영향을 줄 수 있으므로 임의로 사용하지 않도록 주의해야 합니다.
  • 자세: 잠잘 때 상체를 약간 높게 유지하면 코 막힘 증상을 완화하는 데 도움이 됩니다.
💡 스팀

따뜻한 수증기를 코로 들이마시는 스팀 찜질은 약 없이 실천할 수 있는 가장 안전하고 효과적인 방법입니다.
