Cough, Runny Nose, Fever. Diagnosed As Pneumonia.Should I Be Concerned ?
My daughter has had a cough and runny nose for about a month. Kept getting her checked and they say its something viral. She started a high fever of 103.4 last night through the day. She had one dose of zithromyasin and now her temp is 97.2. The dr at the urgent care has confirmed pneumonia. Should I be extremely worried. Makes me so nervius when they are sick. Thanks

Hi,
Now as antibiotic treatment is started nothing to worry.
Within few days she will start getting improvement.
If require go for complete blood count and x-ray chest to confirm pneumonitis.
Give her light diet for few days.
Ok and take care.
