Vitamin C seems to be helpful in such infections and even in COVID. So citrus fruits like orange, lemon etc will be good. Protein is much required so you can also increase foods based on wheat. You should avoid all cold items because cold can provide good conditions for viruses to multiply.
Next Steps
If you have suspicion of pneumonia, you should consult a physician or respiratory physician.
