Pneumonia is an acute infection or inflammation of the alveoli.It is usually due to bacteria but may also result from chemical causes, aspiration of vomit, radiotherapy or an allergic mechanism. Symptoms can be a cough, purulent sputum (horrible stuff!), fever,raised respiratory rate, pleuritic pain,confusion (mostly seen in the elderly). Hope you feel better soon.Health Question & Answer
If you had walking pneumonia (like me) you are more susceptible to many other kinds of pneumonia. also, you can be sick and not have a fever. Hit an ER today, k.?
