Patient's question:
My child has been coughing and feverish these days. Could it be pneumonia?Doctor's answer:
When a child has a cough, their temperature rises. First, we should consider whether it is pneumonia, which is closely related to the illness. Therefore, during this period, it is important to keep warm, especially the knees, to avoid catching a cold. We must act quickly when eating and bathing. Newborns with pneumonia tend to sweat easily, so it is important to sweat promptly and drink plenty of water. This will also keep the throat moist. Running can help thin thick mucus and keep the airways clear. The indoor air should be kept fresh and well-ventilated.
