Can a medical nursing mask stop pneumonia?

The wearing of medical nursing masks by pneumonia patients generally does not play a role in the prevention and treatment of diseases. It is recommended that patients with uncomfortable symptoms seek medical attention in time and carry out targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1. Circumstances that can be blocked

If you have strong autoimmunity and have not been in contact with a person infected with the new coronavirus or suspected to be infected, you can wear a medical protective mask to prevent the virus from entering the respiratory tract, thereby reducing the probability of infection.

2. Unstoppable circumstances

1. Bacterial pneumonia: an inflammatory disease of the lungs caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, which is mainly manifested as fever, cough and other symptoms. At this time, the use of medical nursing masks cannot completely block the bacteria, so it is impossible to prevent the occurrence of bacterial pneumonia.

2. Mycoplasma pneumonia: It is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by mycoplasma infection, which is mainly transmitted by droplets, and the clinical manifestations are mainly paroxysmal irritating cough, which can be accompanied by symptoms such as sore throat, headache, retrosternal pain, body aches, and mild fever. At this time, the use of medical nursing masks cannot achieve the purpose of completely blocking mycoplasma, so it is also impossible to prevent the occurrence of mycoplasma pneumonia.

In daily life, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene, wash hands frequently, and avoid going to crowded places. At the same time, we should also pay attention to a reasonable diet, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and high-protein foods, which can enhance the body's resistance and help the recovery of the disease. If there is obvious discomfort during the period, it is necessary to seek medical treatment in time.
