Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. How can I check for hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be caused by a viral infection. There is no specific treatment, and the main approach is systemic supportive therapy and symptomatic treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine can be used, as herbal remedies may have some efficacy in alleviating symptoms of viral diseases and shortening the course of the illness. There are many factors that can trigger hand, foot, and mouth disease. If a child is confirmed to have hand, foot, and mouth disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor in active treatment, support gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
