Mycoplasma pneumonia is a popular disease in autumn and winter every year. Many children are easy to get sick, especially those with poor resistance. Mycoplasma pneumonia can be seen in large hospitals or small clinics, depending on the individual's condition.
Do you want to go to the big hospital to see mycoplasma pneumonia
Not necessarily, it depends on the individual condition.
As long as the symptomatic treatment of plasmodium pneumonia is needed, it is not necessary to go to a large hospital. The clinical application of azithromycin or erythromycin is specific to mycoplasma, and other symptomatic treatment is also needed. If these drugs are still not curable, you can take some traditional Chinese medicine and basically remove the root.
Mycoplasma pneumonia may be caused by mycoplasma infection, and patients may have a dry cough. If it is not very serious, they generally do not need to be hospitalized. They can drink more warm water, or some rock sugar sydney water, which helps alleviate the symptoms of dry cough. Patients can also take azithromycin dispersible tablets, roxithromycin capsules and other drugs under the guidance of doctors. If the condition is serious, frequent coughing and pneumothorax occur, which seriously affects the normal work and life. At this time, it may need to be hospitalized in time. Under the guidance of the doctor, the method of aerosol inhalation of gentamicin sulfate injection and ambroxol hydrochloride injection can improve the condition, which is conducive to the recovery of the condition. The effect is relatively fast.
Can Mycoplasma Pneumonia Be Treated in Small Clinic
If the condition is mild, you can go to a small clinic for treatment.
If mycoplasma pneumonia has been diagnosed now, the patient may have paroxysmal cough. As well as fever, if the symptoms are not very serious after diagnosis, you can go to a small clinic for treatment, mainly using macrolides. Drugs such as azithromycin or roxithromycin can be combined with some other antitussive and expectorant drugs.
Generally speaking, there is no need to be hospitalized for mycoplasma pneumonia, but if the condition is very serious and there is a high fever, such as shortness of breath, then it should be sent to the hospital in time. Patients with mycoplasma pneumonia can generally be cured after sufficient treatment. However, after rehabilitation, if you do not develop good habits, you may still have recurrent attacks. Therefore, for some patients with mycoplasma pneumonia, you should develop good habits, avoid excessive fatigue, and keep adequate sleep.
How to treat mycoplasma pneumonia
1. General treatment
Respiratory isolation may cause a small epidemic due to mycoplasma pneumonia, and the time for patients to discharge mycoplasma is longer, up to 1 to 2 months. At the same time, during the infection of mycoplasma, it is easy to re infect other viruses, leading to the aggravation of the disease and the delay of recovery. Therefore, for patients or patients with a history of close contact, respiratory isolation should be achieved as far as possible to prevent reinfection and cross infection.
Oxygen therapy should be given in time to patients with severe hypoxia or severe airway obstruction. Its purpose is to increase arterial partial pressure of oxygen and improve tissue hypoxia caused by hypoxemia. The method of oxygen administration is the same as that of general pneumonia.
2. Application of antibiotics
According to the microbiological characteristics of mycoplasma, antibiotics such as penicillin that can hinder the synthesis of microbial cell wall are ineffective against mycoplasma. Therefore, antibiotics that can inhibit protein synthesis should be selected for the treatment of mycoplasma pneumonia, including macrolides, tetracyclines, chloramphenicols, etc. In addition, lincomycin, clindamycin, vancomycin and sulfonamides such as SMZxo are also available.
3. Symptomatic treatment
Expectoration: the purpose is to make the sputum thinner and easier to discharge, otherwise it is easy to increase the chance of bacterial infection. However, there are few effective expectorants. In addition to strengthening body turning, back slapping, atomization and sputum suction, expectorants such as Bisuping and Tanyijing can be selected.
Antitussive: Since cough is the most prominent clinical manifestation of mycoplasma pneumonia, frequent and severe cough will affect the patient's sleep and rest, and sedatives can be given appropriately, but not too often.
