Patient's question:
Baby hand, foot, and mouth disease, eating well, sprayed, got better, went back to the hometown for 3 months, sent to a Halal kindergarten for 3 days, slightly mild, took Ribavirin and got better, after a few days it got severe again, hospitalized with a fever of 39 degrees, high red blood cell count, discharged after 3 days, isolated at home and got better, did not go to kindergarten anymore, usually had one or two blisters in the mouth, so I gave him more water.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Your child has previously had hand, foot, and mouth disease, which is a contagious infectious disease caused by enteroviruses. It commonly occurs in children under the age of 5. There are many enteroviruses that can cause this disease, with Coxsackievirus A16 and Enterovirus 71 being the most common. This disease does not provide lifelong immunity, and it is likely to be infected with new variant viruses. The main reason is that children have low resistance, so it is important to strengthen care, pay attention to temperature and nutrition, take the child out for walks on sunny days, expose them to sunlight, exercise moderately to enhance physical fitness, and avoid crowded places to prevent repeated cross-infection. You can also take some immune-boosting medications or supplements. Wishing your baby a healthy growth and a happy family!
