10 Signs of Pneumonia

Pneumonia Sign #8: Fatigue
Sometimes, our bodies can be hard at work beneath the surface, even when we are otherwise inactive. In the case of severe infection, our bodies will be spending a lot of energy on trying to deal with the problem, leaving us feeling tired. This fatigue will endure for as long as we are ill, and no matter how much rest we might get.
During this time or fatigue and in addition to the other symptoms they will be experiencing, the patient will not feel like doing anything. The patient will be needing plenty of rest anyway as their body fights against the infection. Fatigue can linger once pneumonia has been cured, but it will pass altogether before long.
