Question
How to treat pediatric pneumonia?
Answer
If a child has developed pneumonia, it is generally recommended to undergo inpatient treatment. Pneumonia is often caused by microbial infections such as bacteria and viruses, and commonly presents with symptoms of lung heat. It is necessary to perform some blood tests, along with detailed examinations like X-rays, and have a doctor diagnose before administering many types of antibiotics and symptomatic medications to clear the lungs and cool the blood. During this period, pay attention to staying warm, drink plenty of water, and maintain a light diet.
