What are the symptoms of pulmonary infection in a 6-month-old baby1

  1. Rapid breathing. For a 6-month-old baby, the most common symptom if there is a lung infection is shortness of breath. Because when there is an infection in the lungs, it also means lung inflammation, which leads to an increase in inflammatory exudate and a large area of alveoli occupying the lungs, naturally affecting the normal respiratory function of the lungs.

  2. Digestive symptoms. When a 6-month-old baby develops a lung infection, multiple partners may also experience loss of appetite, or during the feeding process, mothers clearly feel very difficult. Even for babies who can eat, they are prone to adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting after feeding. When this situation occurs, mothers must distinguish between choking and spitting milk.

  3. Fever situation. When there is a lung infection, it means that there is some inflammation in the lungs, so the body temperature of newborns will naturally be higher than that of normal babies. If some babies have weaker resistance, the fever will be more severe. In this case, parents must take corresponding cooling measures. If the situation is severe, physical cooling or medication should be used to achieve the treatment goal.
