How long does it take to recover from pneumonia? #pneumonia #lungs

Wondering how long it takes to recover from pneumonia? It depends - but here’s what you need to know in under a minute.

Mild pneumonia can take about 1 to 2 weeks to clear up, especially in younger, healthy people.

But if you’re older, living with a chronic condition, or had a more serious infection - recovery can take 4 to 6 weeks, sometimes even longer.

- Take all prescribed meds (especially antibiotics)
- Rest - your body needs time to heal
- Drink plenty of fluids
- Ease back into movement slowly
- Watch for symptoms that return or get worse

And even when you start feeling better, it’s normal to still have a bit of fatigue or a lingering cough for a while. Give yourself time - full recovery doesn’t always mean ‘back to normal’ overnight.
