Hello,
Thanks for trusting Healthcaremagic!
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
Based on my clinical experience I can tell you that it is better to avoid self treatment in condition like
pneumonia.Delay in treatment can lead to the development of unwanted complications.
I suggest you to consult a general physician and get the following things done:-
1.Start a short course of antibiotics like "levofloxacin" for up to ten days.
2.Make a temperature chart to assess the prognosis and can take paracetamaol if you have
fever.
3.Do a repeat X- ray to look for any improvement by treatment.
4.You can take antihistamines and nasal decongestants if signs of
nasal obstruction is present.
Most cases resolve with prompt antibiotic therapy,In case of persistent symptoms you might need intravenous antibiotics as prescribed by your physician.
Hope this information helps.
wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr.Shinas
