Generally, the course of pneumonia lasts about one to ten days, and symptoms should stabilize. Do not stop medication immediately. It is recommended to continue treatment for three more days while focusing on symptoms and signs. At the same time, it is suggested to undergo some tests, such as Mycoplasma.
Lifestyle Care: You should pay attention to preventing colds and avoiding exposure to cold. Maintain good air circulation in the room.
