How long does a child with pneumonia have a fever?

Patient's question:

My baby was hospitalized due to pneumonia. He has been having recurrent fever. After the temperature drops, it rises again. How long does it take for children's pneumonia with fever to recover? How can it improve quickly?

Doctor's answer:

Children with pneumonia usually recover completely within about a week. However, the specific situation depends on the severity of the pneumonia. If a child experiences pneumonia again, it is important to seek active hospital treatment and medication. In terms of diet, it is advisable to choose light liquid or semi-liquid foods. As the pneumonia treatment improves, it is recommended to encourage more activities to enhance the child's resistance and immunity.
