Doctor's answer:
Regarding the treatment of bronchopneumonia in babies, it needs to be considered based on specific symptoms. First, it is important to identify the cause of the infection, such as bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, etc. It is recommended to conduct tests such as a blood test to determine the cause. If the infection is bacterial, appropriate antibiotics should be used.
