Patient's question:
My baby is two years old this year. Recently, due to a cold, he has been coughing non-stop. Sometimes his little face turns bright red from coughing. Today, I took him to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said it's pneumonia in children. I would like to consult if there are any home remedies for pediatric pneumonia. Thank you for your response.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, pediatric pneumonia can be treated with oral anti-inflammatory antibiotics. For example, gentamicin, in addition to penicillin, can be administered. If the condition is severe, intravenous infusion treatment can be implemented. It is important to ensure that the baby drinks plenty of warm water regularly to slow down metabolism. Also, pay attention to maintaining a moist indoor air environment. Additionally, for coughing, oral ambroxol oral solution or hydrochloric ambroxol oral solution can be used for treatment.
