How long does it take to treat mycoplasma tracheitis

Mycoplasma tracheitis is also a common clinical disease, and many reasons may cause mycoplasma tracheitis. Generally, patients with mycoplasma tracheitis are infected with mycoplasma bacteria, so when treating them, we must pay attention to treating the specific type. Mycoplasma tracheitis is more common in young children, and the treatment time must be controlled well. So how long does it take to treat mycoplasma tracheitis?

1. Nursing

Whether bronchitis can be completely cured depends on how severe the condition is. Children who receive proper prevention and treatment have a very good chance of recovery. If the disease recurs repeatedly, there is an obvious allergic constitution, and the doctor's instructions are not followed, such a condition will be difficult to cure. If not treated actively, it can easily turn into chronic bronchitis. The lung structure of chronic bronchitis has changed and it cannot be completely cured, but regular treatment can completely relieve symptoms and reduce attacks. It is recommended to eat more antitussive and antiasthmatic foods on a daily basis, such as ginkgo, loquat, grapefruit, pumpkin, yam, chestnut, lily, kelp, seaweed, etc.

2. Treatment

The general treatment time for mycoplasma bronchitis is 1 to 2 weeks. Most children with mycoplasma pneumonia have a slow onset and a persistent cough, usually lasting one to two weeks, accompanied by sputum. There is fever, but it is generally low to moderate, and high fever is rare. The white blood cell count is generally normal, the erythrocyte sedimentation rate is often increased, and the Coombs test is positive.

3. Treatment

Mycoplasma bronchitis has obvious symptoms but mild signs. There are no special manifestations when auscultating the lungs, but a chest X-ray may show flake-like shadows in both lung lobes. Penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics commonly used in treatment are ineffective, but azithromycin is particularly effective. But the course of treatment is long, more than 10 days. Generally, the injection is given for 5 days, followed by a 3-day break, and then another 5 days of injection. This is to reduce the gastrointestinal reaction of azithromycin. Parents are reminded that they should not stop treatment midway just because the cough has eased or the body temperature has returned to normal, so as to avoid recurrence.
