Hi
I would suggest you to take care of your diet being a new mother.
Try to keep your diet rich in fruits and vegetable which are rich in vitamins and Minerals and play a role in strengthening of immunity.
Also try to include balanced diet which include all the nutrients.
I can surely help you in improving your health and warding off the symptoms but not without one to one discussion about your vitals and your medical history and eating habits.
Yeah it's always better to avoid medicine during breastfeeding as the medicine can affect the quality and quantity of your milk also.
If you need assistance from me then you can call or WhatsApp at the number mentioned on my Practo profile.
