What symptom can children pneumonia have

summary

Before the application of antibiotics, bacterial pneumonia had great harm to the health of children and the elderly. The use of antibacterials had significantly reduced the mortality of pneumonia, but in recent years, the overall mortality has not decreased or even increased. I would like to introduce the symptoms and signs of pneumonia, hoping that you can detect and prevent the occurrence of diseases as soon as possible.

What symptom can children pneumonia have

First: the common symptoms of pneumonia include cough and expectoration, or aggravation of the original respiratory symptoms, and pyogenic sputum or blood sputum, with or without chest pain. The scope of pneumonia is large, and there may be dyspnea and respiratory distress. Most patients have fever. The severity of pneumonia depends on the pathogen and host state.

Second: there is no obvious abnormality in the lung in the early stage. In severe cases, there may be accelerated respiratory rate, nasal instigation and cyanosis. The typical features of pulmonary consolidation were dullness of percussion, enhancement of speech tremor and bronchial breath sound, and moist rale could also be heard. In patients with pleural effusion, the chest percussion on the affected side was voiced, the expectoration was weakened, and the respiratory sound was weakened.

Third, the severity depends on three factors: the degree of local pulmonary inflammation, the spread of pulmonary inflammation, and the degree of systemic inflammatory response.

matters needing attention

I hope you can take your child to a larger hospital, find a professional children's doctor to give your child a comprehensive examination, check whether you have pneumonia, and then carry out symptomatic treatment, hoping that your child can get better as soon as possible.
