How to treat pneumonia in a three-month-old baby

Patient's question:

Cough.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the chest X-ray results for your baby indicate bronchopneumonia. Pneumonia is a common respiratory infectious disease in pediatrics, and with active treatment, the course of the disease is generally around 1-2 weeks. Since your baby is quite young, it is recommended to hospitalize for treatment. The treatment principles include comprehensive therapies such as anti-inflammatory, bronchodilator, and expectorant treatments. Intravenous infusion will be required. Please ensure your baby drinks plenty of fluids and performs frequent back tapping to help with expectoration. Wishing your baby a healthy growth!
