Question

How to handle pneumonia that appears when a baby chokes on formula milk?

Answer

When a baby develops pneumonia due to choking on formula milk, parents should seek medical assistance immediately. The baby may require lung imaging and bacterial cultures to determine the type and cause of the pneumonia. The doctor will prescribe appropriate antibiotic treatment based on the test results, and may also need to provide oxygen therapy and supportive care to help the baby through this difficult time. During treatment, parents should closely monitor their baby’s symptoms and ensure they receive adequate rest and nutrition. Additionally, parents should pay attention to keeping the baby’s airways clear to prevent another choking incident.
