Patient's question:
The day before yesterday, I had a fever, so I gave him Little Anruke and Paracetamol alternately. Now I don't have a fever anymore, but there are small red bubbles on my feet and in my mouth. I can't eat anything. I went to the hospital today and they prescribed some medicine for eating and mouth rinsing. The mouth rinse can also be used to rub hands and feet. I should be able to eat something tonight. Should I pay attention to anything else? Is there any improvement in the current situation?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 medicines: Daqingye oral liquid, Antiviral oral liquid, and Shuanghuanglian oral liquid; Western medicines: Ribavirin tablets or oral liquid, both of which can have good efficacy.
