@masiya– Did you just stop treatment? If so it takes quite a while for lungs and your body to heal and repair themselves after pneumonia. I think that you are perhaps pushing yourself too soon. This could strain your lunges. Sometimes it takes months to recover from pneumonia. Can you just take a break from exercising until you have more energy?
Mmmm owk…thanks then it just that im worried coz I'm a soccer player I have to get back to work…

@masiya– If you are still healing from pneumonia and you go and play soccer you could strain your lungs and cause more damage because they are already stressed. Your lungs could fill up with fluid.

@masiya– Connect is an online community that has patients helping patients. We are not physicians and cannot offer medical advice, only advice based on persona experience. This being said unless you wish an appointment at a Mayo Clinic all I can do is tell you that rest and drinking lots of fluids is your best bet. I think that you already know this? You need advice from a doctor. When did you stop your treatment of antibiotics? Have you had a follow-up chest Xray or CT scan? Perhaps you are still ill?

@masiya– Good morning and welcome to Mayo Connect. May I ask you a few questions so that I can better help you? How long ago were you treated for pneumonia? Were you hospitalized? Are you still taking any medicine?
Here is information about pneumonia from Mayo Clinic
