Mycoplasma infection in young children usually takes time to cure

How long it takes for mycoplasma infection to be cured in young children needs to be comprehensively judged according to the physical condition and severity of the child's condition. Most patients can be cured within 7~10 days, but it may take longer for those with more severe disease.

If the mycoplasma infection in young children is not serious, but the mycoplasma infection is positive, there are no other complications, and the child's physical fitness is good, this situation can generally be cured in about 7~10 days. After that, the child also needs to go to the hospital for regular follow-up, and if the results of two consecutive tests are negative, the drug can be stopped under the guidance of the doctor.If the child's mycoplasma infection is more severe, mycoplasma pneumonia, myocarditis and other diseases appear, and the child's physical fitness is poor, the treatment time will be relatively long, and it may take about 7~10 days to cure.

Some children with more severe disease may develop mycoplasma encephalitis, heart damage, etc., in which case the treatment time will be longer, and it may take 14 days or more to cure. Because mycoplasma infection is contagious, children should be isolated during treatment to avoid infecting others. At the same time, children also need to actively cooperate with doctors for targeted treatment, and during the treatment period, they can take macrolide antibiotics such as azithromycin and roxithromycin under the guidance of doctors, which can help control the disease.

It is recommended that children should maintain good eating habits in daily life and avoid eating spicy and stimulating foods, such as chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns.
