These pathogenic microorganisms can cause pneumonia

Pneumonia is a relatively common disease in internal medicine and respiratory medicine, which can be treated with oral antibiotics and infusion antibiotics in severe cases. If there was pneumonia in the past, then there were related pathogens that invaded the human body, and pneumonia appeared. The following are common pathogenic microorganisms of pneumonia.

Illustration of the virus

First: atypical pathogens: the common ones are mycoplasma, chlamydia, Legionella pneumophila, etc. Among them, mycoplasma is more common and is also a well-known pneumonia pathogen among the general public. In addition to the diagnosis of chest CT to suspect pneumonia, blood sampling is also required to check for mycoplasma antibodies and other items to determine whether mycoplasma pneumonia is present.Of course, mycoplasma antibodies here include mycoplasma antibodies IgM and IgG. Some hospitals write "mycoplasma antibody" directly, and some hospitals write "mycoplasma antibody IgM, mycoplasma antibody IgG", in principle, try to write "mycoplasma antibody IgM, mycoplasma antibody IgG". Among them, Mycoplasma antibody IgM is positive or elevated, indicating current infection with pneumonia, while Mycoplasma antibody IgG indicates previous infection with Mycoplasma.

Second, bacteria: such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Pneumoniae pylori, etc.

Third, viruses: influenza virus, parainfluenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, adenovirus, etc.
