Patient's question:
Yesterday afternoon after school, I noticed my daughter had a slight fever, wasn't eating well, and had small blisters on her hands and feet that were itchy. I applied some medicine (Wujige ointment). At night, it was still itchy. What kind of help I need: I want to know if it could be hand, foot, and mouth disease.Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you answer your question: For children, it is likely hand, foot, and mouth disease, caused by a viral cold. It is recommended to check the child's oral condition again. If there are small white spots on the oral mucosa or oral ulcers, it can basically be confirmed as hand, foot, and mouth disease. You should go to the hospital for examination to clarify and receive targeted treatment, such as letting the child rest more, drink more water, eat a light diet, and receive antiviral treatment.
