hi. i have 2 kids and am worried about the x ray result. both of them have pheumonitis right accdg to their x ray result. my kids were 5 year old and weight 14.5 kilogram and he had sepsis when he was born and treated for months.... the other one is 1 year old weighing 9.5 kilogram just have flu and coughing...    what does it mean? need your medical advise doctor... thanks
Hi I can understand your concern.... Let me know you your both child diagnosed pneumonitis means inflammation of lung tissue .... If consolidation and exudation present then it could be pneumonia .... But here consolidation not present ... Cause has to be searched like ...../Viral infection which seems most likely here /Passive smoking exposure /Hypersensitivity pneumonitis means allergy to certain substance like animal gender/Bacterial infections etc...... Your child should be examined and treated accordingly with steroid or antibiotic usage .... Consult pulmonologist for this.... Hope your concern solved .... Take care... Happy to help you further....
