Patient's question:
My child is 7 months old and was diagnosed with bronchopneumonia two days ago. They received injections for 6 days, which were anti-inflammatory shots, including one dose of azithromycin, and twice a day with a nebulizer. Today, the check-up still shows some wheezing. I want to ask if the child still needs injections?Doctor's answer:
If the child's condition is like this, they are already in the recovery phase. A bit of shortness of breath is normal and there's no need to worry. Any illness requires a certain period of treatment. The child is already doing quite well now, but the improvement is a bit slow. There's no need to use many antibiotics anymore. Overuse can weaken the child's immunity. It's okay to let the child drink more warm water and eat fruits and vegetables to help the body recover.
