Question
How severe are the symptoms of pediatric pneumonia?
Answer
If a child has pneumonia, they may experience persistent fever and severe coughing. If hospitalization is required, it is advisable to closely coordinate with a doctor. While not necessarily an immediate return home, if you are concerned about your child’s condition, it is recommended to return to care as soon as possible for greater peace of mind. In terms of diet, a light and healthy diet should be maintained, and ensure your child consumes adequate amounts of water.
