How to look at the test sheet for mycoplasma infection in children
Mycoplasma infection in children can be diagnosed by looking at laboratory tests, symptoms, routine blood tests, X-rays, CT scans, and other laboratory tests.
1. Test sheet
Mycoplasma is a common pathogen that can be transmitted through the respiratory tract, direct contact, indirect contact, etc. If a child has mycoplasma infection, the test will show elevated C-reactive protein, normal or low white blood cells, normal neutrophils, and elevated lymphocytes.
If this happens, the child may be infected with mycoplasma.
2. Symptoms
Children infected with mycoplasma may have symptoms such as fever, cough, fatigue, headache, and muscle aches. If these symptoms are present, the child may be infected with mycoplasma.
3. Routine blood examination
The routine blood test is a blood test to check whether the white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes, etc. in the blood are normal, so as to determine whether there is an infection in the body. If the white blood cell count, neutrophil count, and fever are elevated, the child may be infected with mycoplasma.
4. X-ray examination
X-ray examination is a cross-sectional scan of a certain part of the human body by using the penetrating effect of X-rays, which can check whether there are lesions in the body. If a child has mycoplasma infection, X-rays may show increased markings and thickening of the lungs.
5. CT examination
CT examination is an imaging examination, mainly through X-ray scanning, which can determine whether there are pneumonia, bronchitis, encephalitis and other diseases in the child's body. If this happens, the child may be infected with mycoplasma.
It is recommended that children should pay attention to rest in their daily life, maintain adequate sleep, and avoid overwork. If the above situation occurs, it is recommended that the child go to the pediatric internal medicine department of a regular hospital in time and actively cooperate with the doctor to avoid delaying the condition.
