Patient's question:
I had a low-grade fever that kept coming and going. Finally, I went to the hospital for a blood test, and the white blood cell count was 14.5. The diagnosis was herpangina. After receiving intravenous fluids, my fever went down, but it returned after 2 or 3 days. The doctor then prescribed more fluids and advised me to watch my hands and feet. He recommended a follow-up visit the next day. The results of the follow-up examination at the hospital confirmed that it was hand, foot, and mouth disease.Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, this infectious disease is generally caused by enteroviruses, which often occur in infants and young children. It can cause blisters on the hands, feet, mouth, and other parts. In some cases, it may lead to myocarditis or pulmonary edema. It is recommended to seek timely and standardized treatment.
