Patient's question:
Doctor, I don't know how my son got Mycoplasma pneumonia this year. He has been hospitalized for treatment in the hospital these days and has been coughing non-stop. It's so hard to see him coughing. Besides phlegm, is there anything special about diet for pneumonia patients? How can one maintain a balanced diet?Doctor's answer:
Pneumonia requires attention to diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, as well as extremely cold and refrigerated foods. It's important to prevent colds and keep warm. Drinking more warm water is beneficial. You can also consume some honey-cooked pear juice, which has a cough-suppressing effect. Eating more fruit juices and dairy products is recommended. Choose easily digestible options to ensure balanced nutrition. For Mycoplasma pneumonia, regular medication treatment is necessary.
