Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. Could you please tell me which medications are used for hand, foot, and mouth disease in children?Doctor's answer:
You can take antiviral medications, such as virazole and viramidine, etc. If you have a fever, you can use some traditional Chinese medicine to clear heat and detoxify. Hand, foot, and mouth disease may be combined with conditions such as myocarditis, encephalitis, and meningitis. Symptomatic treatment should be administered promptly, and B vitamins should be taken orally. It is more common in infants under three years old, but adults can also be infected. Poor environmental hygiene, food hygiene, and poor personal hygiene habits can lead to the disease. If abnormalities are found, timely treatment is required using antiviral medications for symptomatic treatment.
