Should I Be Concerned About Pneumonia In 6 Year Old, Given Antibiotics But Still Coughs?
my daughter was diagnosed with pneumonia she is 6 years old was on antibiotics and got some what better...she still has a cough and rattling in the chest and she is still pale with dark circles around her eyes. I was told to go back if she gets a fever, she has no fever but looks and sounds unwell. Its been 4 weeks shouldn't she be better by now?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, in case of pneumonia when it gets in resolution phase, cough gets increasing (Productive) that disturbs the patient, but this gets all right, no specific treatment is needed for this, here you can try pure honey at bed time just 20 ml would be enough, and gives good result, take care have nice day.
