Viral pneumonia is dangerous because it manifests itself already at the stage when the lungs are affected.
Pneumonia can be bacterial or viral in nature, the second option is more difficult to treat.
What symptoms of pneumonia may appear before coughing?
You feel tired, which is difficult to explain. Some patients complained of a persistent drop in temperature.You are experiencing soreness in your body. This is due to the fact that the inflamed lung tissue increases in size and touches the nerve endings of other organs.
You feel discomfort in your back on the left or right (this is how unilateral pneumonia manifests itself).
With bilateral inflammation, pain spreads to the entire back and abdomen.
You see that the skin of the body has changed color, sometimes the skin turns pale, sometimes it acquires a yellowish tint. This is due to the fact that the lungs are not working 100% and the body experiences significant oxygen starvation.
