Does Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in children infect adults?

Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in children may be transmitted to adults, so it is necessary to cooperate with the doctor for treatment in time after the illness and avoid close contact with others to avoid cross-infection.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in children is usually caused by low immunity, which leads to mycoplasma infection, and eating and kissing with adults may cause the pathogen to spread through respiratory droplets, thus spreading to adults. If the immunity of an adult is relatively low, it is possible to be infected and cause symptoms of physical discomfort.After Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in children, they may have symptoms such as cough, sputum production, and fever, and can cooperate with doctors to take medication, such as azithromycin granules, doxycycline hydrochloride capsules, etc., which can generally play an anti-infection role, thereby promoting the recovery of the condition. If you have a fever, you can reduce the fever by physical cooling, such as using antipyretic patches or warm water scrub baths.

Adults should pay attention to protective measures in daily life, try to avoid sharing daily necessities with children, and avoid going to crowded public places to avoid cross-infection. If an adult has symptoms of discomfort, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment in time.
