Patient's question:
I went to see a doctor. Took medicine and itchy all over. On April 26, 2010, there were three small bubbles. About the past treatment and effectiveness: The doctor said it wasn't serious. He prescribed a medicine called Suppolic tablets, Ribavirin dispersible tablets, and Shegan mixture. No topical ointment was prescribed. What kind of topical ointment should I use?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Based on your description, hand, foot, and mouth disease can be treated with the following measures. Suggestions: In addition to the antiviral medications you mentioned, it is also important to maintain local hygiene to prevent secondary bacterial infections. Topical applications of tetracycline fish liver oil can help alleviate pain and promote the healing of erosions. For itching, you can try applying calamine lotion to the affected area. If you have a fever, you can also use some heat-clearing and detoxifying traditional Chinese medicines.
