Brief Answer: Follows. Detailed Answer: Dear sir , Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that there exists a possibilty that you could be suffering from respiratory tract infection but certain tests need to be done for its determination . A complete blood count , Sputum c/s , CXR PA , will be required. You need to consult a pulmonologist for the same as auscultation of chest is required for the diagnosis . Sometimes when the infection is bacterial it can be transmitted through droplets so avoiding close contact with the new born is suggestible . Take care. Dr. Shruti
