Question

My two-month-old baby has started to be excessively sleepy and has significantly reduced appetite. She vomits after eating milk, and here is the check-up report. What is the baby’s condition and severity? The baby has pneumonia and needs medical treatment; she cannot go without taking medicine or receiving intravenous fluids.

Answer

The baby’s condition may be related to respiratory tract infection, and it requires intravenous anti-infection treatment. Since the baby has a weak immune system, intravenous treatment is preferable. I suggest you take good care of the baby, provide adequate water intake, and ensure the room is not too dry. It is necessary for you to cooperate with the doctor’s active anti-infection treatment. The general course of the disease is about ten days.
