Pneumonia/ RSV bronchiolitis vs RAD

Oh, gosh , I should have included FBO. The detractor for me was coryza,and (-) tonsillopharyngeal congestion, which means a visual exam of oropharyngeal area r/o upper fbo, lower airway obstruction then would be suspected and a lateral neck Xray indicated. Report It

How was the FBO treated? Report It
