What is the cause of infant mycoplasma infection

First: how does mycoplasma infection in children lead to it? Generally speaking, mycoplasma infection is transmitted through sexual contact. Mycoplasma infection in children is due to the presence of Mycoplasma bacteria in the reproductive tract of the mother, which can infect the baby through the birth canal at the time of birth.

Second: neonatal mycoplasma infection will generally lead to conjunctivitis and mycoplasma pneumonia. When children are infected with mycoplasma, the bacteria are absorbed in the children's respiratory tract or urogenital tract epithelial cells, will not enter the human blood circulation, but can cause cell damage.

Third: after being infected by Mycoplasma, the host cells absorbed by Mycoplasma will lead to cell death due to the continuous absorption of nutrients by Mycoplasma. It is worth noting that mycoplasma infection will not only lead to cell death, but also metabolize some toxic substances, which can damage the human nervous system.

matters needing attention
