Suggest Treatment For Viral Pneumonia

Hi, I have had viral pneumonia for almost 3 months, my xray still shows pneumonia in both lungs, I have been taking Ibuprophen every 6-8 hours for the last 3 months, cannot function without it. My Dr. says antibiotics won t help and is taking a wait and see approach and gave me an RX for an albuterol inhaler. I am a healthy 40yr old female. What would be the correct treatment?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the viral infection then it may not need any specific treatment, and avoid taking Ibuprofen, no need to worry about this everything would be fine soon, take care in diet and hygiene, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
