BronchoPneumonia

2023-03-02 15:35:01
My father is suffering from severe fever, cough and phlegm since 10 days. Doctor has diagnosed BronchoPneumonia after test results. CRP - 225 Chest x-ray results: Both lung fields show mildly Increased bronchovascular markings. Both hila appear prominent-?Vascular/Lymph nodes. Doctor has prescribed Augmentin 625 antibiotic for 14 days. After taking 5 days medicine, fever has come down to 99, CRP is 51 but chest x-ray shows same results. I want to know is this treatment going in the right direction? Is there anything I should be concerned about? How many days will it take to reflect improvement in x-ray? Please let me know.
