What is the cause of children's pneumonia?

Patient's question:

The child is 2 years old and has been coughing recently. Sometimes, in addition to the symptom of dry cough, I took the child to the hospital for a thorough examination a few days ago. After the careful examination, the doctor said that the child has pneumonia. The child is only two years old, and I don't know what caused the pneumonia. I would like to ask what are the causes of infant pneumonia?

Doctor's answer:

The child's immunity is relatively low, and if pneumonia reoccurs, it is usually caused by infectious reasons. The possibility of cross-infection is higher. Hmm, after pneumonia, it is generally necessary to decide on intravenous treatment, with a treatment cycle of about half a month. It is essential to pay close attention. Hmm, after full recovery, it is still necessary to carefully monitor the child's temperature. If there are no issues during the stable period, there is no need to worry.
