Pneumonia:
Pneumonia is a respiratory infection that can be caused by a variety of bacteria and viruses. It most often affects the young, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems.
Pneumonia can lead to serious health complications, including death. Prompt diagnosis and treatment is essential to preventing its development into more serious conditions.
Symptoms may include:
- coughing, chest pain,
- shortness of breath,
- fever,
- and night sweats.
In most cases, pneumonia can be treated with antibiotics. However, if the pneumonia is severe or doesn’t respond to antibiotics, it may require hospitalization.
According to the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians, naturopathic doctors have a “unique understanding of the body’s natural ability to heal itself.”
As such, they may be able to provide relief from pneumonia symptoms and help prevent further illness.
Naturopathic doctors may also prescribe natural remedies that can help speed up the healing process. The first step in treatment is to determine the cause of the illness.
The naturopathic doctor will take a medical history and perform a physical examination to look for signs or symptoms of pneumonia.
