It is important to be cautious about mycoplasma infections. During the recovery period, it is appropriate to eat some mutton. During the onset of the disease, it is best to avoid mutton, as it is a warming and nourishing food and it is meat. Eating it during the onset may exacerbate the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms of indigestion. Meanwhile, eating mutton during the recovery period can supplement proteins and calcium, enhancing the body's resistance and facilitating quicker recovery from the illness. Therefore, it is advised that everyone pays attention to differentiating the phases and appropriately eats foods that aid in bodily recovery. Additionally, patients with mycoplasma infections should follow the doctor’s instructions, taking medications on time and in the correct dosages. Do not stop taking medication or reduce the dosage on your own, as this may delay recovery and complicate the situation.
