Patient's question:
Son got the foot-hand-mouth vaccine at his own expense during his last vaccination, but since the day before yesterday, he has been feverish and drooling. When taken to the clinic, it was diagnosed as foot-hand-mouth disease. Is it a misdiagnosis, or is the vaccine fake? Will he still get foot-hand-mouth disease after getting the vaccine?Doctor's answer:
Dear Parent,Receiving the hand, foot, and mouth disease vaccine only serves as a preventive measure. If the child frequently exposes themselves to environments with a high concentration of the hand, foot, and mouth virus, and their immune system is weak, they may still become infected. In such cases, it is recommended that the child stay away from patients with hand, foot, and mouth disease and actively exercise to strengthen their own resistance. In other respects, there is no significant issue.
