Mycoplasma infection is not gonorrhea. Mycoplasma infection often tends to invade the respiratory and genitourinary systems clinically, and it is a different type of disease from gonorrhea. Gonorrhea is one of the most common and prevalent sexually transmitted diseases in the clinic, mainly transmitted through unclean sexual activities. On the other hand, mycoplasma is mostly transmitted through airborne droplets, which can easily cause bronchopneumonia. It is necessary to use macrolide antibiotics intravenously in a timely manner to eliminate mycoplasma, drink plenty of water, rest enough, and prevent complications.
