Question
How can a mycoplasma infection be cured? My child is 7 years old, has an allergic constitution, often gets colds with fever, coughing, and asthma, enlarged tonsils, and is prone to high fever up to 37.4 degrees. In early November, they were diagnosed with mycoplasma pneumonia and took four courses of azithromycin before stopping the medication in early December. The effects were not significant. What suggestions do you have?
Answer
This kind of condition is relatively common in children. If the treatment does not show improvement after a period of time, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital for intravenous treatment with azithromycin. During this time, it is important to encourage the child to drink plenty of water to aid in recovery from the illness.
