Question
My child recently had a fever of 39 degrees and was diagnosed with pneumonia after a hospital check-up. I would like to know the severity of the condition and the treatment methods.
Answer
Fever caused by pneumonia indicates an inflammatory infection, and symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication should be used for treatment. It is also recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine such as Xiao’er Qingfei Liangxue Oral Liquid and Pudelann Oral Liquid for clearing heat and detoxification, while administering fever-reducing drugs like Tylenol for fever reduction.
