How long does it take for a solid lung lobe to heal?

In most cases, the lobe of the lung becomes solid and the lung becomes infected, which is why the lobe becomes solid and requires hospitalization. If the medication is timely and correct, generally, the disease can be cured in about a month, and the patient needs to be hospitalized for about half a month to go home for oral medication. During the hospitalization period, intravenous drip medication is needed to treat the infection, and appropriate antibiotics or antiviral medication should be selected for anti-inflammatory treatment depending on the type of infection. For example, if a bacterial infection occurs, intravenous antibiotics such as levofloxacin may be used for adults. In the case of children, ceftriaxone or cefoperazone can be used. If there is an allergy, azithromycin can be used for anti-inflammatory treatment, which is also more effective. In addition, it is usually accompanied by breathlessness, and intravenous aminophylline is needed to relieve the breathlessness. If the fever is severe, antipyretic medication should also be used.
