Patient's question:
I would like to ask how to prevent hand, foot, and mouth disease in advance to avoid getting infected. If isolation is not possible, is the fever two days earlier caused by fever? There are three small bubbles on the tip of the tongue—is it hand, foot, and mouth disease?Doctor's answer:
Children with related symptoms should seek medical attention promptly. Children receiving treatment at home should not come into contact with other children. Parents should dry or disinfect their children's clothes promptly and disinfect their children's feces in a timely manner. Children with mild illnesses do not need hospitalization and should be treated and rested at home to reduce cross-infection. Regarding the child's condition, I recommend that they first go to the hospital for examination and confirmation of whether it is hand, foot, and mouth disease before receiving treatment.
