Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. By the way, is hand, foot, and mouth disease something you only get once?Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is no vaccine for baby hand, foot, and mouth disease, but there are over 20 types of viruses that can cause it, and it can be reinfected. Pay attention to increasing nutrition, avoiding colds, and preventing infections. Take B-complex vitamins orally, such as vitamin B1, vitamin B2, and vitamin C; for oral ulcers, apply plum blossom powder, oxytetracycline fish liver oil, or tin chloride externally. For severe pain, apply lidocaine or benzocaine mixed with boracic glycerin to promote the healing of the erosive surface. Keep the area clean to prevent secondary bacterial infections.
