Mycoplasma pneumonia usually takes a few days for fever to go away

Patients with mild symptoms of mycoplasma pneumonia have a shorter fever time, and if they are treated with fever-reducing and anti-infective drugs in time, the fever can be reduced in about 3 to 5 days, and if the symptoms are severe, the fever can last for about 1 week, and patients with severe mycoplasma pneumonia may have a longer fever.The specific time for fever to subside varies depending on the patient's physical condition and the severity of the disease.

Patients with mycoplasma pneumonia are generally asymptomatic for the first few days to a week, followed by fatigue, sore throat, cough, headache, muscle aches, etc., and then show persistent paroxysmal severe cough, mostly episodic dry cough, which worsens at night. May be accompanied by shortness of breath or difficulty breathing. Some patients may also present with fever. In general, fever can be reduced within 3-5 days, and for those with poor physical fitness, it can last for a week or even longer.

Mycoplasma pneumonia is mainly treated with macrolide antibiotics such as azithromycin. When patients are not sensitive, quinolones (eg, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, etc.) can be used, but children are generally rarely used.

If you have fever, cough and other discomforts, you need to go to the fever clinic of the hospital in time under the premise of personal protection. Whether antimycoplasma treatment is needed, a professional doctor should guide the treatment, do not treat without authorization, and prevent adverse consequences.
