How to care for children with adenovirus pneumonia?

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. How should I care for a child with adenovirus pneumonia?

Doctor's answer:

If the child's condition, after the hospital's thorough examination and diagnosis confirms a viral infection, this situation may lead to recurrent fever. It is important to pay close attention to monitoring temperature fluctuations. If the fever is high, it is recommended to use physical cooling methods or fever-reducing patches to lower the temperature. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees, over-the-counter fever-reducing medication is advised. It is important to stay warm, drink plenty of fluids, and maintain a light diet. Follow the doctor's advice to use some antiviral medications and traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying for treatment.
