Patient's question:
My baby is now three months old. Recently, for about half a month, she has been spitting up foam in her mouth. At night, there is a sound in her throat, like phlegm, along with swallowing movements. Her eyes are slightly closed, her breathing is uneven, and her head shakes back and forth. Occasionally, there are a few coughs. She is eating well, but sometimes she cries and is restless. She doesn't have a fever. Could it be pneumonia?Doctor's answer:
From your description, it should be pneumonia. Small infants may not have a fever. It is recommended to use antiviral drugs and antibiotics for treatment. It's still best to go to the hospital for treatment, as the condition of a child this age can change rapidly.
