Pneumonia Crisis?
13 Answers
My dad is in hospital, [i]again[], with pneumonia and other long term lung problems.
I was talking to a friend, this afternoon, about him and she was asking me about his 'crisis'. She said that with pneumonia there is a crisis point following which you survive or you don't. My friend is in her eighties. Is she right about this 'crisis' or is it an old wives' tale?

It is a medical term, used for lobar pneumonia and not bronchial pneumonia which your dad has probably got. "Crisis" is a term used for untreated pneumonia, but today all pneumonias are treated with antibiotics so the term "crisis" doesn't apply.
