How to solve Mycoplasma infection of bronchopneumonia

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation, keeping the line breaks as they are:
Enough, cough. Recently, in the afternoons, there has been fever. I went to the army hospital for treatment. The doctor said it was Mycoplasma infection and said injections could be given for observation. In a couple of days, Cephalosporin was prescribed. Then Azithromycin for a few days. Recently, after tests, it was said that there was improvement, so another three days of Azithromycin and Ambroxol were given. However, the child then developed high fever. At this point, two doctors have already been changed at the army hospital. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Mycoplasma infection of bronchitis is caused by mycoplasma viruses. Mycoplasma infections can be cured through active treatment. In such cases, active anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing treatments are generally sufficient. The antibiotics with the most inhibitory activity against mycoplasma and commonly used for mycoplasma infections are tetracyclines, macrolides, and many quinolone drugs. If the condition does not stabilize after treatment, it is recommended to return to the hospital for diagnosis and symptomatic treatment.
