Patient's question:
5 years old, boy, diagnosed with pneumonia, should have been given intravenous fluids for 6 days, but still has recurring low fever, coughs quite severely, and lacks energy. What kind of assistance would you like: I wonder if this is caused by pneumonia? Is there no other inflammation? I also noticed some bloating in the child's abdomen today.Doctor's answer:
Hello: I believe your baby developed a low immune response after catching a cold, leading to bacteria, viruses, or mycoplasma entering the body, which clinically manifests as high fever, coughing, and phlegm.Advice: I recommend testing your baby's blood routine and mycoplasma to determine the underlying cause. Then, provide symptomatic treatment based on the diagnosis. During this period, ensure adequate rest, avoid overexertion, and maintain a light, easily digestible diet. Avoid extremely cold, hard, or spicy foods, which can be irritating. Inhalation therapy can also be effective. Pay attention to preventing colds and avoiding exposure to cold temperatures.
