Patient's question:
The initial symptoms of the child were vomiting, and there were blisters on the back of the hands and in the mouth. I want to know what disease this is a sign of and how to treat it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, regarding the vomiting symptom you mentioned, you can first try to identify the cause. If it's caused by food or heatstroke, you should avoid consuming that food or prevent the child from overexerting themselves during hot summer days. Regarding the blisters you mentioned, there is a possibility of hand, foot, and mouth disease. It is recommended that you take your child to a regular hospital's pediatric department for diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner. At the same time, in daily life, pay attention to your child's hygiene—wash hands before meals and after using the bathroom, frequently wash and disinfect clothing and toys, and avoid letting others kiss your child's mouth. These measures can effectively prevent the spread of hand, foot, and mouth disease. I hope this helps.
