Patient's question:
Doctor, my son is 5 years old. Last month, on the 2nd, he had a fever and went to the hospital for a check-up. The examination revealed pneumonia, and the doctor prescribed medication and administered injections. He recovered completely, but today, when he went to the hospital for another check-up, it was discovered that he had pneumonia again. Since coming home, he has had a fever. I want to ask the doctor, what is the cause of fever in children with pneumonia?Doctor's answer:
Children experience pneumonia again accompanied by fever. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a routine examination promptly to make a diagnosis. Timely use of anti-inflammatory drugs should be administered to alleviate symptoms. Additionally, it is advised to let the baby eat a proper amount of light diet, which can be complemented with physical aerosolization as part of the treatment. Frequent recurrence of pneumonia is likely due to a weakened immune system.
