Is bronchial pneumonia contagious in babies?

In general, baby bronchial pneumonia may or may not be contagious, and it needs to be judged according to the specific situation.

Bronchopneumonia is an inflammatory disease caused by pathogens infecting the bronchial lungs, if the baby's body resistance is relatively poor, contact with patients with bronchopneumonia, may be infected with viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma and other pathogens through respiratory transmission, direct contact transmission, indirect contact transmission, etc., thereby inducing bronchopneumonia. If the baby's body is relatively resistant, when it comes into contact with a patient with bronchopneumonia, it may not be infected with the pathogen through respiratory transmission, direct contact transmission, indirect contact transmission, etc., so it will not be contagious.

The baby suffers from bronchopneumonia, and may have symptoms such as cough, sputum, and fever, and parents can use amoxicillin granules, cefixime granules and other drugs for treatment under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to the baby's warmth to avoid the baby from getting cold, so as not to aggravate the condition. If the baby has fever symptoms and the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, parents can treat the baby with ibuprofen suspension, acetaminophen suspension drops and other drugs according to the doctor's instructions.

If the baby has uncomfortable symptoms, it is recommended that parents take the baby to a regular hospital for medical treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition.
