Question
What medication should I take if mycoplasma pneumonia recurs?
Answer
The patient had been treated with azithromycin for 15 days, with symptoms slightly alleviate but occasional coughing still present. Asking for further assistance: I have already taken oral and intravenous medications for some time, but now I’m coughing again, could it be another mycoplasma pneumonia infection? According to clinical diagnosis, the pathological changes of mycoplasma pneumonia are mainly interstitial pneumonia with secondary bronchopneumonia, also known as primary atypical pneumonia. This infection is mainly transmitted through droplets, with an incubation period of 2 to 3 weeks, with the highest incidence among adolescents. Symptoms are usually mild and may include common respiratory symptoms such as headache, sore throat, fever, and cough. Treatment recommendations include attention to respiratory isolation, regular window ventilation to keep indoor air fresh, drinking plenty of water, eating easily digestible and nutritious food, enhancing outdoor activities and respiratory exercises, and keeping warm to prevent catching a cold.
