What Is The Remedy For Mycoplasma?

My daughter is 13 years old. She is very active and dances upwards of 20 hours per week. She recently had mycoplasma. (3 weeks ago maybe). Several days ago she mentioned she is getting these "pinches" in her chest. Some are right under her ribs, some are on her upper chest. They seem to only last a few seconds and are not too painful. But it scares her. I'm not too sure what these means. We have an appointment with our family Dr. But I am concerned.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Such pinches on chest are mostly due to muscular spasms.
No need to worry for recurrence of pneumonia. Common symptoms of pneumonia are fever, cough, persistent chest pain etc.
All these symptoms are absent so no need to worry for pneumonia.
Apply warm water pad and ice packs alternatively on chest.
Tell her to avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, she will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
