Patient's question:
My baby was taken to the neonatal department right after birth, as the doctor suspected neonatal respiratory distress and neonatal hypoxia. They were treated in the hospital for 2 weeks.

Now my baby is 57 days old.Treatment history and effectiveness: My baby was taken to the neonatal department right after birth, as the doctor suspected neonatal respiratory distress and neonatal hypoxia.
