Post pneumonia recovery days
Hi,
My son who will be 4 months old on this 30th Nov, went through pneumonia. He was hospitalized for 4 days and got discharged on 14th Nov. So how many days it will take to fully recover from pneumonia as I can see he still has a cough and we are not using syrup as the doctor didn't recommend after 3 days from discharge??
