Patient's question:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease. Yesterday morning, I noticed blisters in my child's mouth and took them to the hospital. The doctor couldn't confirm it was hand, foot, and mouth disease. At noon, the blisters in the mouth turned white and started to hurt. This morning, the ulcers are more noticeable, and the pain is so severe that they can't eat. Should they be hospitalized? We're worried about complications like encephalitis at home.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this situation should be a bit of a viral infection, or it could be hand, foot, and mouth disease, but the above treatment measures are correct for general hand, foot, and mouth disease. It is recommended that if your child has mental health issues, such as sleepiness, irritability, and headaches, you can go to the hospital for follow-up. If not, you can continue treatment with the above medications, and the course will be sufficient to improve. It is recommended that patients go to a regular hospital for treatment.
