About Pneumonia

Pneumonia is a serious lung infection that inflames the air sacs in one or both lungs, which may fill with fluid or pus. It can be caused by various pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Common symptoms include a persistent cough, shortness of breath, chest pain, fever, and fatigue. Pneumonia can range from mild to severe, with certain populations, such as young children, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems, at higher risk. Treatment typically involves antibiotics for bacterial pneumonia and supportive care for symptoms. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for a successful recovery.
