How to treat hand, foot, and mouth disease

Patient's question:

Two days or so

Doctor's answer:

Children with hand, foot, and mouth disease usually have their body temperature return to normal within 2 to 3 days. The rashes on the hands and feet often absorb within 2 to 3 days without leaving scabs. The blisters and ulcers in the mouth can last for about a week. Antiviral medications are typically effective, such as traditional Chinese medicine: Daqingye oral liquid, Antiviral oral liquid, and Shuanghuanglian oral liquid; Western medicine: Ribavirin tablets or oral liquid, both of which can have a good therapeutic effect.
