Patient's question:
The baby started feeling a bit feverish on the day before yesterday at noon. They looked completely lacking in energy and were always sleeping drowsily. They even vomited once in the middle. The fever hasn’t gone down yet. This is the first time my baby has had a fever for this long. Could my baby have hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
If you suspect your child has hand, foot, and mouth disease, it is recommended that you take your child to the pediatric department for examination immediately. After diagnosis, the doctor will provide symptomatic treatment for you. Hand, foot, and mouth disease requires isolation treatment, so you need to go to the pediatric department for routine treatment. When danger occurs, parents must have enough patience to take care of the child. After the child gets sick, take the child to the hospital for examination. It is very important for parents to pay attention to the hygiene of the child.
