Will newborn pneumonia leave sequelae?

Patient's question:

The baby just turned one and a half months old. At first, it was just coughing and runny nose, and they thought it was just a cold. But the cold didn't get better and even worsened. The coughing became more severe, and the baby started vomiting and fever. After going to the hospital, they found out it was pneumonia. So, I want to ask, does newborn pneumonia leave behind any aftereffects?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, friend, you will still take your child to the hospital in time for treatment. There are many types of neonatal pneumonia, but no matter what type, it is very dangerous for your baby. Pneumonia should be diagnosed and treated early, and should be actively treated. Most infant pneumonia can be completely cured through active and effective treatment without leaving any sequelae. It is recommended that you follow the doctor's advice.
