What are the symptoms of pneumonia in children?

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me what are the symptoms of pneumonia in children?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the symptoms of pneumonia in babies include persistent fever. If the baby is newborn, it may also be accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal distension and jaundice that do not subside. Therefore, if the baby's fever persists repeatedly, it is important to promptly check for the source of the inflammation. Do not rely solely on fever-reducing medication, as it only treats the symptoms and not the root cause.
Hello, it is likely caused by infection and physical weakness. It is recommended to increase nutrition, supplement vitamins and trace elements, avoid harmful stimuli, maintain a calm mood, and get adequate rest. Medication: Azithromycin tablets.
