When pneumonia is not afraid of sputum discharge, but we should pay attention to sputum discharge to assist phlegm medicine, to prevent coughing too violently, and then coughing hurt the airway, and then coughing blood, inflammation may be aggravated. If there is yellow phlegm, you must be careful not to use any cough medicine, because once you have to stop coughing, the phlegm is pressed back, pneumonia will not want to get well, even if the acute phase is over, often the lungs will leave some chronic lesions. In fact, when you have pneumonia, you’re not afraid of any phlegm, you’re afraid of no phlegm when you have pneumonia.
