Patient's question:
Get to know ureaplasma, take a course of roxithromycin tablets for 12 days. Take one tablet once a day. How many courses are needed to be cured? Do I need to avoid certain foods? Can I eat fish, shrimp, crab, and eggs? Thank you, doctor and expert. Looking forward to your reply!First question supplement: Also, I noticed that my 2.5-year-old daughter has some white granular discharge around her urethral opening and a slight odor. Is this normal? What tests should be done to determine if she has the disease? Can this disease be transmitted through laundry or by sharing towels?
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Generally, medication needs to be taken for more than two weeks, depending on the changes in the condition. Ureaplasma infection can be treated with drugs such as roxithromycin, clindamycin, doxycycline, and levofloxacin. Pay attention to hygiene, as Ureaplasma can be mutually transmitted. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are more prone to pediatric urinary tract infections. For parents, do not panic and should take the child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Also, pay attention to regular check-ups for the child and follow the doctor's guidance for symptomatic treatment.
