Patient's question:
For the first two days, I had a high fever, with a temperature of 39.7 degrees Celsius. I went to the hospital for tests and was diagnosed with mycoplasma infection. Now I'm getting an IV drip of erythromycin. The high fever has subsided, but I heard my child's breathing sounds. Is it pneumonia? Can it be treated? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
The situation you described is related to the child's cough and fever, which may be associated with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. Mycoplasma infection often leads to symptoms such as cough and fever. It is recommended to have the child's blood tested for Mycoplasma pneumoniae at the hospital. If the test results are positive, it indicates a Mycoplasma infection, and it is best to follow the doctor's treatment plan. Additionally, it is advised to pay close attention to rest, drink more water, and consume more vegetables and fruits. If the temperature is too high, it is recommended to use fever-reducing medication, and physical cooling methods should also be applied. Drinking pear water to clear the lungs is also suggested.
