Patient's question:
Hello, the blood test results are relatively normal. The chest X-ray suggests mild inflammation. Is it pneumonia? The child first had a high fever for three days and took medicine to reduce the fever, but the cough became severe. Initially, the child had a fever with a runny nose, followed by a high fever and cough. After taking anti-inflammatory and cough medicine for four days, the fever subsided and the cough became milder.Previous treatment and effectiveness: No specific treatment was administered.
Request for help: Hello, the blood test results are relatively normal. The chest X-ray suggests mild inflammation. Is it pneumonia?
Doctor's answer:
This consultant has inferred based on your baby's condition. Currently, the possibility of bronchial inflammation is relatively high. Because pneumonia on the chest X-ray should show point-like shadows or large areas of increased density. Some pneumonia may also present with fixed wet rales in the lungs upon percussion. Although the chest X-ray is normal, it can still be pneumonia. If your baby's condition does not match the above scenarios, then it is bronchitis. The above is the suggestion for the question "Hello, blood test indicators are relatively normal, chest X-ray feels mild inflammation." It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wish you health!
