Pneumonia is a serious lung infection that commonly affects children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems. Dr Shivanshu Raj Goyal, Associate Director & Unit Head – Pulmonology, Respiratory & Sleep Medicine at Max Hospital, Gurugram, explains how pneumonia appears as an inflammatory patch on an X-ray or CT scan and can be caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, TB, or even aspiration of stomach contents (aspiration pneumonitis).
Importantly, pneumonia is preventable. An annual influenza vaccine reduces the risk of viral pneumonia, while adults over 50–60 years or those with weakened immunity should consider pneumococcal vaccination as advised by their doctor. The good news: with timely diagnosis and treatment, pneumonia is entirely curable. Stay informed, act early, and protect your lungs.
