Patient's question:
The child usually doesn't have a fever, but he remembered to take him to the hospital for a check-up. He was happy, but the doctor said he had infantile pneumonia. He didn't know what caused the infantile pneumonia?Doctor's answer:
The factors that trigger this disease are due to the upper respiratory tract infection (such as colds, tonsillitis, tracheitis, or bronchitis) spreading upward to the lungs. Strengthening preventive measures against rickets and malnutrition are important measures to prevent children from developing pneumonia. Preventing acute respiratory infections that easily lead to pneumonia is also crucial. Avoid cross-infection—do not let the baby play with sick children, and adults should minimize visits to the homes of patients.
