How long does it take to treat chlamydia pneumonia in children

Pediatric chlamydia pneumonia generally needs to be treated for 2-4 weeks to get better, but the specific time needs to be comprehensively judged according to the severity of the disease and personal constitution.

Chlamydia pneumonia in children is an inflammatory disease of the lungs caused by Chlamydia pneumoniae infection, and children may have uncomfortable symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, and muscle aches. If the child's condition is relatively mild and actively cooperates with the doctor for treatment, it generally takes about 2 weeks of treatment to get better. However, if the child's condition is more serious and he does not actively cooperate with the doctor for treatment, he may need to be treated for about 4 weeks.

Pediatric chlamydia pneumonia can be treated with drugs such as azithromycin granules and amoxicillin granules under the guidance of doctors, which can play an anti-infection role. If the child has fever symptoms and the body temperature exceeds 38.5 °C, he can also take ibuprofen suspension, acetaminophen granules and other drugs for treatment according to the doctor's instructions, which can play a role in reducing fever.

In addition, children should also pay attention to rest during the treatment, keep indoor air circulation, and avoid eating spicy and stimulating foods, such as chili peppers, peppercorns, etc., so as not to affect the recovery of the disease. If the child has uncomfortable symptoms, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition.
