Respiratory infections in newborns require careful evaluation because very young babies can develop breathing difficulties more rapidly than older children. Symptoms may include cough, rapid breathing, difficulty feeding, nasal congestion, reduced activity or changes in breathing pattern. Dr. Nihaz Naha K provides assessment and management of respiratory infections in newborns, with particular attention to early signs of respiratory distress and associated infection. Treatment depends on the baby's age, symptoms and severity of illness. He also provides specialised care for newborns who require closer respiratory monitoring and advanced neonatal support.
