Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination indicated a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. Can taking medication cure my Mycoplasma pneumoniae?Doctor's answer:
How the patient will improve after taking the medication is something we cannot confirm at this time. If the condition is severe, it is generally recommended to implement hospital intravenous treatment. Mycoplasma is a type of microorganism whose size is intermediate between bacteria and viruses. In clinical diagnosis, it is often advised to use a variety of macrolide-class anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment. It is still better to consult with the attending physician based on the patient's blood test results, mycoplasma antibodies, chest X-ray, and other detailed examination findings.
