Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can Excess Coughing, Weakness, Lack Of Appetite And Fatigue Be Treated?
My husband took a phemonia shot on March 6th, got very sick, hard time breathing, coughing a lot, very weak, no appetite, very very tired. I have been giving him Amoxicillin twice a day and got his fever broke, he drinks plenty of fluid, what else is there. This coughing got to stop, he s getting so weak
Sounds to the level of development of pneumonia likely.
Immediately, take him to a nearby PCP and get his blood tests and X-ray chest done to identify the underlying intensity of the respiratory infection and treat accordingly.
The mainstay of management would be better antibiotic, bronchodilator, anti-inflammatory, multivitamins with supportive care.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel,
General & Family Physician
