Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination suggested a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. Please advise about children with adenovirus pneumonia.Doctor's answer:
Children who develop adenovirus pneumonia after a cold must be treated promptly. For this type of viral pneumonia, antiviral drugs need to be used for treatment. In most cases, ribavirin can be determined based on the condition, or oseltamivir can also be used. Early use of antiviral drugs is much more effective, and it should be combined with inhalation therapy to actively treat without leaving any aftereffects.
