How is neonatal pneumonia treated?

Patient's question:

The baby came to the delivery room right after class because it was too hot outside. The delivery room had air conditioning, and after the baby was born, the room in the ward also had air conditioning. However, because I was too tired and fell asleep, no one noticed that the baby had a cold. Since the baby's phlegm wasn't cleared properly, it coughed for a long time and then developed pneumonia. How is newborn pneumonia treated?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is a great pleasure to assist you. After catching a cold, the newborn has been coughing for a long time. He went to the hospital and was diagnosed with pneumonia. He should be hospitalized actively. After systematic treatment, the newborn's pneumonia can be cured, mainly using sensitive antibiotic infusion therapy. For severe cough, atomization inhalation therapy can also be combined. Children should drink more water and pay attention to changes in their body temperature, etc.
