The symptoms of mild bronchopneumonia in children can be acute or chronic, usually first with symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, but can also occur suddenly.

1. Most of the fever is high, around 39-40℃, irregular, and the fever type is uncertain, mostly a relaxed fever type. Infants with rickets and malnutrition do not have a high body temperature; when newborns suffer from pneumonia, their body temperature will not rise.

2. Coughing is an early symptom of this disease. It starts with frequent irritating dry coughs, followed by phlegm in the throat. Coughing may be accompanied by vomiting and choking on milk.

3. Faster breathing, nasal fanning, slight cyanosis around the mouth and nails in some children

4. Early lung signs are not obvious, only the breathing sounds are rough or slightly decreased. After a few days, medium and fine moist rales can be heard, especially fine moist rales, which are dense at the back lung base and spine and clearer at the end of deep inspiration. When lung lesions are fused, signs of pulmonary consolidation such as increased tremor, dullness to percussion, weakened breathing sounds or tubular breathing sounds on auscultation may appear.

In addition to respiratory symptoms, children may also have systemic symptoms such as depression, irritability, loss of appetite, tremors, diarrhea, etc. If treated in time, they should recover within two weeks.

The above introduces childhood pneumonia from four aspects. I hope parents will pay attention in time and better stay away from the symptoms of pneumonia in their babies!
