After Mycoplasma infection in humans, it often causes diseases such as pharyngitis, bronchitis, and pneumonia. Coughing is a common symptom, and it tends to be quite severe, presenting as an irritating dry cough with generally little sputum. The cough often lasts a long time, possibly continuing for 3 to 4 weeks, or even longer.
For treatment, macrolides or fluoroquinolones are generally used for antibacterial therapy. Additionally, cough suppressants can be used for symptomatic treatment.
