Patient's question:
On April 28th evening, I had a fever, but no symptoms of a runny nose or cough. I took fever-reducing medication. This morning, the fever returned, and when I went to the community clinic, they said blisters had appeared in my mouth and suggested treating it as hand, foot, and mouth disease.Doctor's answer:
Your condition 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 a treatment. Chinese herbal medicine may have some efficacy in reducing symptoms of certain viral diseases and shortening the course of the illness.
