Like, instead of just taking antibiotics, is there something you can use at home to help cure it?

It is possible to cure it without antibiotics, but hard and dangerous. It will take much longer, can lead to serious complications and even death. It is better to use them along with old-fashioned methods like drinking hot tea and staying in bed. Pneumonia is caused by bacteria.

Walking pneumonia only means you have fluid in ONE of your lungs, not TWO.
You need antibiotics to get rid of pneumonia because it can be so serious. WHY won't you go to a doctor? You can't be sure you even have it without an Xray. The doctor needs to diagnose it before it can be treated.

i know that when you do have walking pneumonia you should get a lot of rest, and sleep a lot. walking pneumonia is very serious. if you are going to try any home receipes for it consult your doctor first. if walking pneumonia is correctly treated you get a lot worse or even death. feel better soon, watch a lot of tv and get a ton of sleep

There are several kinds of pneumonia. Your mother got it because of the hospital's inability to keep her body elevated so the phlegm wouldn't go into her lungs. Make sure your mother is sitting up when you see her. The oxygen device is to get pure air into her lungs as she heals. She needs that air.
