Question

How to Treat Pediatric Pneumonia Most Effectively?

Answer

Pediatric pneumonia requires detailed pathogen testing to determine if it’s caused by bacterial or mycoplasma infection. A mycoplasma titer test can be conducted, and the characteristics and frequency of symptoms like coughing, difficulty breathing, and fever in the baby’s pneumonia should be observed. Typically, pneumonia is caused by bacterial infection and requires anti-infection treatment. It is recommended to be hospitalized for observation and undergo chest X-rays in severe cases.
