Patient's question:
The day before yesterday, my nephew suddenly had a fever and a few small red spots on his hands and feet, with more around his anus. The hospital suspected hand, foot, and mouth disease.Treatment history and effectiveness: After 2 days of treatment, the condition did not worsen.
I would like to obtain professional treatment knowledge and protective measures for hand, foot, and mouth disease.
Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, hand, foot, and mouth disease generally occurs due to a decline in immunity, vitamin deficiency, or frequent contact with patients suffering from hand, foot, and mouth illness. It is recommended to pay attention to getting more rest in the near future, minimize staying up late, drink more water, and have a blood test. Under the guidance of a doctor, use antiviral medications reasonably. In daily life, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, maintain a balanced diet with both meat and vegetables, and pay special attention to avoiding irritation on the areas of hand ulcers.
