Hi,
Pneumonia is infant needs to be treated promptly. I suggest you to consult your pediatrician for clinical assessment and hence treatment. The immune system of infants is not fully developed so mild infections can turn serious if not treated in time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
