How to care for hand, foot, and mouth disease in the later stage

Patient's question:

Hand, foot blisters, drooling, poor appetite. June 3, 2010, dietary transmission. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Intravenous fluids for 4 days, symptoms disappeared. Do I still need intravenous fluids? What medicine should I continue to consolidate?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! It is currently the peak season for the incidence of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), which is highly contagious, especially through blister fluid. HFMD is primarily transmitted through the digestive tract, respiratory tract, and direct contact. Based on your symptoms, they are relatively mild. After treatment, your condition has improved and been controlled. It is recommended to follow a light, high-protein diet and pay attention to keeping your body warm. Given the current condition, your condition has shown significant improvement. It is advised to continue intravenous fluid treatment for 1-3 days to further consolidate the recovery. The above suggestions are for the topic of "post-HFMD care." I hope this is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
