How long do the symptoms of pneumonia last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends upon degree : Pneumonias can vary from minor to severe. Minor infections might be cleared up in a week while severe pneumonias may require months for recovery. If there is a lot of lung destruction there may not be full recovery.
