How to prevent mycoplasma pneumonia

The methods of preventing mycoplasma pneumonia mainly include strengthening personal protection, paying attention to indoor ventilation, paying attention to personal hygiene, enhancing physical fitness, and vaccination.

1. Strengthen personal protection

Because mycoplasma pneumonia is contagious, it is recommended that patients need to do a good job of personal protection when going out, wear masks correctly, and avoid close contact with others to avoid cross-infection. At the same time, patients can also do appropriate physical exercises, such as jogging, swimming, etc., which can improve the body's immunity and help prevent mycoplasma pneumonia.

2. Pay attention to indoor ventilation

Since mycoplasma pneumonia is mainly transmitted through respiratory droplets, it is recommended that patients pay attention to indoor ventilation in daily life and keep indoor air fresh, which can reduce the breeding of indoor pathogenic microorganisms and help prevent mycoplasma pneumonia.

3. Pay attention to personal hygiene

Due to the contagiousness of mycoplasma pneumonia, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene, wash hands frequently, change clothes frequently, and avoid direct contact with respiratory secretions with their hands. At the same time, patients can also use disinfectant or detergent to wash their hands, which can play a role in disinfecting.

4. Enhance physical fitness

It is recommended that patients can eat foods rich in protein, vitamins and other nutrients in their daily life, such as eggs, celery, etc., which can enhance the body's immunity and help prevent mycoplasma pneumonia.

5. Get vaccinated

It is recommended that patients be vaccinated in time if their physical conditions allow to prevent the occurrence of mycoplasma pneumonia.

If the patient has mycoplasma pneumonia, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time, and anti-infective treatment can be carried out with drugs such as azithromycin and roxithromycin under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, patients can also use drugs such as ibuprofen and acetaminophen for antipyretic treatment as prescribed. Drinking plenty of water during treatment is conducive to recovery.
