A sign of pneumonia in children under one year old may be rapid breathing and “bloating” of the wings of the nose. This, according to TASS, was stated by Deputy Director for Research of the Central Research Institute of Epidemiology of Rospotrebnadzor, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Alexander Gorelov.
“The main signs (of pneumonia) are a pale nasolabial triangle, swelling of the wings of the nose and shortness of breath. The key symptom is an increase in respiratory movements one and a half times more than normal – this is almost 100% pneumonia, ”he said.

Among the main symptoms in children are nasal congestion, sneezing, muscle weakness, headache, cough, loose stools, sore throat, chills, impaired taste and smell.
