Article: Pneumonia is treated primarily with antibiotics, usually azithromycin, clarithromycin, or doxycycline. Your doctor will chose which specific antibiotic you should take based upon your age and medical history. Once your doctor provides you with a prescription, have it filled immediately by bringing it to your local pharmacy. It is very important that you finish the full course of antibiotics prescribed by your doctor and follow any instructions written on the bottle, unless instructed otherwise by your doctor. Even if you feel better, stopping antibiotics early can create bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. For otherwise healthy individuals, the antibiotics prescribed by your doctor will typically begin to make you feel better in approximately one to three days. During these first days of recovery, it is vital that you get plenty of rest and that you drink plenty of fluids. Even after you begin to feel better you should not overexert yourself, as your immune system is still recovering. This is important because overexertion may lead to a reoccurrence of pneumonia. Drinking fluids (particularly water) will help break up mucus in your lungs. Again, finish the entire course of medication prescribed by your doctor. Eating the right food cannot cure pneumonia, however, a good diet can assist in a normal recovery. Colorful fruits and vegetables should be eaten regularly. They contain antioxidants, which help your body resist and recover from disease. Whole grains are important as well. They are a good source of carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals that will boost your immune system and boost energy. Finally add protein-rich foods to your diet. Protein provides the body with anti-inflammatory fats. Always check with your doctor if you plan on making significant changes to your diet. Try eating oats and brown rice to add whole grains to your diet. Try eating beans, lentils, skinless chicken, and fish to add protein to your diet. Avoid fatty meats, such as red meat or processed meat. Again, drink plenty of fluids to hydrate and help thin out any mucus in your lungs. Some studies have suggested that vitamin D helps with recovery from pneumonia, though this is unproven. Chicken soup is a good source of fluids, electrolytes, protein, and vegetables! Some (but not all) doctors will schedule a follow up visit. This will typically take place one week after your initial visit, and the doctor will want to make sure the prescribed antibiotics are working. If you do not feel any improvement over the course of this first week, you should call your doctor immediately to schedule a follow up appointment. Normal recovery time from pneumonia is one to three weeks, though you should begin to feel better after several days of antibiotics. If symptoms persist for a week after you have begun taking antibiotics, this may be a sign you are not recovering, and you should contact your doctor immediately. If the infection persists with antibiotic treatment, patients may still require hospital-level care.

Problem: Article: Make sure that the racks in your oven are positioned so that you can fit your Dutch oven inside. If you want the meat to be even more tender, preheat the oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit (135 degrees Celsius) instead. Note that the lower cooking temperature will require you to cook the stew for an additional 30 to 60 minutes longer than specified in the remaining instructions. The meat should already be in the Dutch oven if you browned it. Pour the sauce over the meat and stir well to coat all sides. Cover the Dutch oven with its lid. Add the bay leaves to the sauce at this point, if desired. If you do not have a Dutch oven, you could use a roasting pan or any other oven-safe dish that can fit all of the stew. This dish should preferably have a lid, but if it does not, tightly wrap aluminum foil over the top to cover it. Place the dish into your preheated oven and cook until the meat begins to fall apart. Check the dish after the first 2-1/2 hours, then check every 30 minutes after that. Remove any bay leaves from the broth before shredding the meat. Use two forks to shred the meat. Mix the shredded meat back into the broth until evenly spread out. If there were any bones in your cut of meat, remove them from the stew before serving it. To make the shredding process easier, hold the meat still by sticking it with one fork. Use your other fork the remove bite-size shreds of meat from the sides of the roast. The birria is now ready to eat. Ladle it into separate serving bowls and enjoy. Garnish the dish with lime, chopped onion, chopped cilantro, or chopped radishes, if desired. You can eat this dish as you would eat any other stew, or you can spoon the meat into warm tortillas and dunk the filled tortillas into the broth.
Summary: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (160 degrees Celsius). Combine the meat and sauce in a Dutch oven. Cook for 3 to 4 hours. Shred the meat. Serve.
