Itchy Throat And Dry Skin Patches Posted: 09-15-05 14:48pm
I have been getting an itchy throat, but
its not bad though. I cough to get it to
go away.I also have dry patches and they
itch.
I just want to know if something is wrong
with me or the baby. This is my 5th and
never had this before with the other kids.
Is it something to worry about or not

It oculd be pupp, a skin condition that
soemtimes occurs when pregnant. My friend
had it. Ask your doc about it, cause
there are diff things you can use to treat
it.
"treatment can involve cortisone creams in
the worst cases, but occasionally simple
moisturising creams work. So can calamine
cream. Long, warm sodium bicarbonate
(baking soda) baths can also be relieving.
You may need to be treated with oral
steroids if the itching becomes intense,
but this is not often the case, and is
certainly actively avoided. The lesions
usually go away after giving birth. Your
baby is not affected. "
maybe it;s not this but you never know!
Good luck!
