  If the baby's pneumonia is not severe, nebulization therapy can be used to help the body recover. Firstly, it is necessary to take the baby to consult a pediatrician, undergo a blood routine examination, and observe the baby's condition. Babies can be treated with nebulization, anti-inflammatory and expectorant drugs, etc. Nebulization therapy can be directly inhaled into the baby's lungs, which can directly eliminate the cause.

  If the baby's pneumonia is severe and requires intravenous treatment, then check the baby's physical recovery status afterwards. If the baby recovers quickly, then a check-up can be done three or four days later, and if the inflammation is eliminated, it will be fine. If the baby does not improve, it is necessary to extend the infusion time so that the body can fully recover and avoid recurrence in the future.

  Pneumonia is prone to fever, and most doctors will prescribe anti-inflammatory and antipyretic drugs. If the baby's fever is not particularly high, below 38.5 degrees, physical cooling can be performed. If the body temperature is too high, it is necessary to take antipyretic medication to relieve it. After the inflammation is eliminated, the baby will no longer have a fever, and parents also need to give the baby more water to replenish fluids.
