Can newborn pneumonia be treated with injections?

Patient's question:

A newborn baby is 12 days old. No fever, cough, or slightly rapid breathing. The hospital's blood test results indicate neonatal pneumonia. They need to be hospitalized for injections. The treatment will last for 6 days. Is it necessary to receive injections for 6 days with neonatal pneumonia? Can they take medication?

Doctor's answer:

1. Newborns with low resistance are easily infected, especially when infected. It is best to be discharged after recovery.
2. Do not give medication to the child. This will affect the changes in the condition. Medication has little effect. It is not yet determined to decide the treatment time based on the changes in the child's condition. If there is no method, he will be discharged. This is very easy to repeat. It is recommended to be hospitalized and try not to take medication. As for the length of stay, it should be based on the changes in the condition and leave as soon as possible.
