How is adenovirus pneumonia treated

Patient's question:

Discovered a fever, received intravenous drips for two days, and then went home. Two days later, the fever returned, and again, intravenous drips were administered for two days, after which I was directly admitted to the hospital. On the first day at the hospital, the fever fluctuated and remained low, with it being particularly severe at night. By the third day, it had improved, but at night on the third day, it became a persistent high fever of 40°C, which lasted until 6 a.m. on the third day. Now, I have been in the hospital for six days, and today, I have only had a fever four times. (There is inflammation throughout the lungs.)

Doctor's answer:

Pneumonia can be caused by infectious agents such as coronaviruses, adenoviruses, influenza viruses, etc. Patients typically experience symptoms like headache, muscle aches all over the body, and increased appetite. It is recommended to take fluoroquinolone or carbapenem-class medications for treatment. In daily life, consuming foods like mushrooms, shark fin, and longan can be beneficial.
There are many methods for treating the disease, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach should also differ. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek professional medical evaluation as soon as possible for detailed testing to ensure targeted treatment.
