Suggest Treatment And Diet For Pneumonia In Lungs In Infant
16 month old baby boy, vomiting after drinking fluids and soft food. Was in the hospital Cardinal Glennon here in St. Louis, Mo. was discharged yesterday. Had rash-hives, found out purple dye in the liquid tylanol was causing that but also had neumonia in both lungs. But was sent home with meds, but now cant keep much down. What are some things a parent can do at home to help his little belly?
Hi...there are no specific dietary restrictions for a kid who is suffering from pneumonia. As the kid is 16 months old, and is having pneumonia I suggest giving good proteinaceous diet. Add 1-3 eggs per day. Other home-made food options will be - 1. Daal and rice well cooked and made into a porridge along with ghee 2. Boiled apple or banana and mashed into a paste. 3. Any made cereal porridge preparation with additional ghee added. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
