Your son needs to be on an antibiotic if he has pneumonia.  Even though pneumonia can be viral, it is done to prevent secondary bacterial infections.  Fever should be treated with acetaminophen, and you should give him his Stalin to help him keep his airways open and be more comfortable.  Another very important thing to know his that pneumonia and wheezing as well as fever all cause the loss of fluids and his fluid requirement is at least double normal.  Do not worry about his eating food but be sure he gets plenty of liquids like electrolyte replacement liquids, diluted juices etc. Make sure he is having wet diapers 4-5 times a day.  If he is having paleness, blue color, lethargy when his fever is down or very rapid breathing (greater than 40 per minute) and heart rate(greater than 160 per minute) he needs to go to the hospital.  Also, if you cannot get him to Chat Doctor.
