Could Itchy Throat With Mucousy Cough During Pregnancy Mean Bronchitis?
Hi I m about 8-9 weeks pregnant and for the past week and a half I ve had an itchy throat with a cough that sometimes causes mucus to come up. It s clear, there s no color to it. And, I have no sneezing, runny nose, congestion or anything. Could this be pneumonia, or bronchitis? What can I do naturally to stop it?
