Doctor's answer:
Your baby's condition is considered to be herpangina. Herpangina is a common childhood illness, often caused by Coxsackie virus infection when the body's resistance decreases after exposure to cold. The symptoms include oral herpes, fever, and ulcers. It is recommended to visit the hospital for a thorough examination, drink more water, and use oral ulcer powder externally to facilitate the healing of the blisters. During this period, pay attention to keeping your baby warm, adjusting clothing according to weather changes, and avoiding spicy and irritating foods to prevent your baby from catching a cold.
