Question
The child has a fever of 37.8 degrees and a hoarseness in the throat. After three days of treatment, symptoms still persist. Is it possible to be pneumonia, and what treatment suggestions are there?
Answer
The symptoms may not necessarily indicate pneumonia. It is recommended to consult an otolaryngologist and undergo an X-ray examination. It is advisable to avoid using hormones arbitrarily until a diagnosis is confirmed and necessary. If there is phlegm, it should be coughed up promptly and the characteristics and color of the phlegm should be observed.
