Patient's question:
My grandmother is 70 years old this year. Due to hemiplegia, she has been bedridden for a long time, which has led to a lung infection. How can lung infections in the elderly be relieved?Doctor's answer:
According to the current situation you described, the elderly are mainly bedridden for a long time. If bedridden for a long time, it is prone to lung inflammation, which can easily lead to postural pneumonia. If this situation occurs again, it is recommended to improve the chest X-ray and blood routine examination. If the inflammation is relatively significant, it is recommended to use antibiotics to relieve it, and it is recommended to use the appropriate course and dosage. It is recommended to pay attention to rest and frequently pat the back. Wish you health.
