Pneumonia is an infection of one or both lungs that causes the air sacs (alveoli) to fill with fluid or pus, making breathing difficult.
Common symptoms:
Cough (with or without mucus)
Fever and chills
Chest pain
Shortness of breath
Fatigue
Causes: Bacteria, viruses, or fungi.
Treatment: Depends on the cause—antibiotics for bacterial pneumonia, antiviral or antifungal medicines in some cases, along with rest, fluids, and fever-reducing medications.
Prevention: Vaccination, good hand hygiene, avoiding smoking, and maintaining a healthy immune system.
