What are the causes of pediatric pneumonia? How many days does a child need to stay in the hospital before they can be discharged? How should we care for them?

Answers

Pediatric pneumonia is a common illness during early childhood, which can be caused by factors such as infectious pathogens, aspiration of amniotic fluid at birth, bacterial infections, and allergic reactions. Clinical symptoms may include fever, cough, rales in the lungs, and difficulty breathing. It is recommended to cooperate with the doctor for symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication treatment in a timely manner, and pay attention to preventing colds and avoiding exacerbation of the condition during the treatment period. The main cause of pneumonia is often bacterial infection, or infections caused by mycoplasma, and treatment should be targeted at these causes.
