Hi,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but pneumonia can be well treated and the prognosis is very good under the condition of full compliance to doctor instructions and medications.

If not treated properly it can lead to serious complications.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
