Patient's question:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease have small red spots, but it's better now. I often have stomach pain, and my temperature is high and low. The highest was 38.7 degrees. It has been about a week since the onset. It might be contagious. Do I need to go to a big city hospital for treatment? How long do you think it will take to get better?Doctor's answer:
Suffering from hand, foot, and mouth disease. The main cause is an infectious disease caused by enterovirus, which can lead to blisters on the hands, feet, mouth, and sores on children's hands. There are neutrophil and eosinophil fragments, intercellular and intracellular edema around the blisters, as well as a mixed infiltration of various white blood cells in the dermis. This is the main reason for the blisters appearing on children's hands and feet. Children do not need to be hospitalized and can receive treatment and rest at home to avoid cross-infection. Personal advice, considering the baby is only 3 years and 3 months old, medication must be used with caution. Additionally, the baby should pay attention to daily details, as it will self-heal in hand, foot, and mouth disease. The baby room should be regularly opened for ventilation to maintain fresh air.
