Patient's question:
On August 10th, I had a slight fever, and then developed mouth ulcers. Rashes also appeared on my buttocks, hands, and feet. I visited the pediatric department of our county hospital, where the doctor prescribed Antiviral Oral Liquid, Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid, Xiaosi Qiaoqing Granules, and Ribavirin. Now the child has an itchy all-over body, but taking Prazine has not been very effective.Doctor's answer:
Hello, hand, foot, and mouth disease is a contagious infectious disease in infants and young children caused by enterovirus. In treatment, antiviral drugs such as acyclovir, valacyclovir, famciclovir, and traditional Chinese medicine can be used. Additionally, topical antibacterial ointments can be applied to prevent blister rupture and infection. Furthermore, transfer factor and other drugs can be appropriately used to enhance the baby's immunity. Pay attention to hygiene, perform proper disinfection and care, and prevent secondary or cross infections.
