Self-testing for pneumonia in infants is based primarily on clinical signs.
Infants who develop pneumonia may show symptoms of spitting up bubbles. The child’s nose will flare when breathing, and it will also cause coughing, shortness of breath, elevated temperature, decreased milk supply, crying, poor mental status, and phlegm sounds in the throat.
If the child has the above symptoms, it is recommended to go to the pediatric internal medicine department of the hospital for timely examination, such as lung auscultation and taking chest X-ray, etc., which can confirm the diagnosis of the condition.
If the baby has obvious fever, accompanied by crying, irritability, shortness of breath and other manifestations, it is recommended to pay attention to it, and can go to the hospital for relevant examinations, and give treatment under the guidance of the doctor to avoid delaying the condition.
