Question
My baby is 14 months old and has a poor mental state, possibly ill. How should neonatal pneumonia be treated?
Answer
Neonatal pneumonia is a common disease in infants and requires oral antibiotic treatment during the acute stage to alleviate symptoms and control the progression of the disease. If there is a lot of coughing and sputum, nebulization treatment can be performed to help dissolve respiratory secretions and promote sputum excretion. Maintain a suitable room temperature, good ventilation, and be mindful of colds. Keep the mood pleasant, get plenty of rest, eat a light diet, and avoid greasy and spicy foods to aid in recovery.
