Which diseases can be treated with nebulization therapy?
Disease description:
My colleague's child recently developed bronchopneumonia and has been receiving nebulizer treatment at the hospital. I've never seen this type of therapy before, so I'd like to ask which diseases can be treated with nebulization?

Nebulization therapy in clinical practice is commonly used to treat chronic airway diseases, lesions of the throat, viscous sputum, and steroid-sensitive coughs. It mainly works by inhaling medications such as bronchodilators or corticosteroids to help relieve symptoms and promote sputum clearance. However, nebulization treatment should only be performed after a clear diagnosis has been made by a physician.
