Patient's question:
Since yesterday, my gums have been red and swollen, accompanied by mild low-grade fever. Today, I have a small amount of blisters on my tongue and poor appetite, but my spirits are okay. What are these symptoms, and what medication should I use?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is preliminarily considered that the child may have herpetic stomatitis. It is necessary to conduct a detailed and thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis and actively treat the condition. This disease is caused by a virus, so medication should be administered as early as possible, along with proper diet, enhanced care, and prevention of adverse effects. Consuming vitamin C, B2, and other nutrients can help. For conditions like poor appetite, pancreatic enzyme powder and lactase can be used. Specific treatment should follow the guidance of the clinical diagnosis physician. The diet should be light and include plenty of warm water.
