What to pay attention to when Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in children

Children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection should pay attention to several aspects:

First, the treatment course of Mycoplasma pneumoniae is relatively long, generally 2-3 weeks, parents do not think that after a week of treatment, the effect is very good, the child has no cough, there are no symptoms, immediately interrupt the treatment, in this case, mycoplasma may attack again.Therefore, it is necessary to pay proper attention to the course of treatment, because mycoplasma is not easily killed.

2. Many mycoplasma infections are caused by cross-infection in the family. Therefore, it is important to check whether your parents or grandparents are infected with mycoplasma at the same time. If you are infected with mycoplasma at the same time, these people who are in close contact also need to be treated at the same time, rather than just children, only in this way, the environment that comes into contact with mycoplasma infection can be cut off. Otherwise, the Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection cured it, and it may be that after some time, his grandparents or parents will re-infect him with mycoplasma and get mycoplasma infection. Like many bacteria, viruses, and mycoplasma, they may be in a state of carrier in adults, and there are no obvious clinical manifestations. However, children's resistance is relatively poor, and in this case, they can be infected with pathogenic microorganisms by sharing utensils, or by close contact, or living together.
