What is the reason for a baby's hoarse throat after recovering from pneumonia?

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop lately. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. Could you please tell me what causes a throat noise after infant pneumonia has healed?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, your baby's pneumonia has not been completely cured, and it is recommended to continue treatment. After 4 days of treatment, your baby's pneumonia has started to improve, but some symptoms still exist---runny nose, hoarseness, poor appetite, and crying. It is recommended to use medicine for another 3 days to consolidate the treatment. Otherwise, leaving the (focus of infection) can easily lead to recurrence.
In traditional Chinese medicine theory, the lung and large intestine are interconnected, so after pneumonia, the baby may have digestive symptoms---poor appetite, diarrhea, etc. As long as the pneumonia is treated properly, the baby's digestive symptoms will naturally disappear.
